About Us

The Lacquer Company specialises in handmade lacquer furniture and accessories, bringing Vietnam’s ancient tradition of Son Mai lacquer to contemporary Western designs. Son Mai lacquer is among the world’s finest and has been produced in Saigon for centuries. The Lacquer Company’s highly skilled craftsmen honour the Son Mai process through generations of experience and the company is well known for colourful collections with renowned designers such as Rita Konig, Miles Redd and Veere Grenney.

In addition to the existing collections, The Lacquer Company specialises in bespoke colours, dimensions and entirely custom pieces. The focus is, of course, lacquer although there are also wood and metal finishes to choose from.
