Harpers Project is an Australian furniture brand based out of Melbourne. Adopting a Scandinavian ethic and a mainland European aesthetic, Harpers Project delivers hand-crafted furniture to consumers in its home country as well as in the United States, making it a truly global company.
For all the benefits of mass-produced furniture, industrial techniques simply don't last the test of time. Handmade craftsmanship not only has the potential to look more interesting and unique than factory furniture, but it is also sure to last the trials of daily life. Harpers Project's motto is "Buy Once, Buy Well," a Scandinavian mantra that preaches such long-lasting quality.
The company's furniture combines light woods and marble for materials, including attractive tables and even a clock with a marble backdrop.
