A first short answer that could be given is the following: the difference between hand-made luxury furniture and normal furniture is just like the difference between haute couture and prêt–à–porter.

Now in order to be more specific let’s try a “word to word” approach. Hand-made furniture pieces that wish to belong to the above-mentioned category are made by very skilled craftsmen who allow themselves a zero margin error. Only the best workmanship that is willing to go the extra mile to give you high-end furniture deserves the title.

Luxury furniture means costly furniture. It is costly because apart from the best workmanship, luxury furniture should be made with the best materials and of course with bespoke elements and finishings. Just like in Pitsilkas carpentry studio...

We firmly believe that true hand-made luxury furniture comes in small quantities, because you cannot mass-manufacture it and is considered to be accessible by a few elite. Otherwise it wouldn’t be either luxury or hand-made. As simple as that!
