Questions, answered.
A few things we are often asked. If yours isn’t here, write to us.
How are Farrago pieces made?
Every piece is made by hand by skilled artisans in family workshops, working to designs developed in our New York studio. Nothing is moulded or mass produced.
What materials do you use?
Bone, horn, cast metal and stone, with shell and other inlays on some pieces. Bone and horn are by-products of the food industry, we use no endangered species, and nothing we use is listed under CITES. See Materials for the full library.
Can a piece be made to my dimensions or finish?
Yes. Much of our work is made to order, and we take on full commissions. Read about the process on the Bespoke page, or begin a conversation with the studio.
Do you work with designers and architects?
Regularly. Our Trade Programme is for designers, architects and collectors, with personal support from the studio from first sketch to installation.
How long does a piece take?
Timing depends on the piece, the material and the finish. The studio will confirm lead times with you before an order is placed.
Do you deliver?
Delivery is arranged individually for each piece. Write to us with your location and the pieces you are considering, and we will send a quote. More on the Shipping + Care page.
How do I care for my piece?
Care differs by material. Guidance for bone, horn, metal and stone is on the Shipping + Care page.
Can I see a piece in person?
Yes, at the studio in New York or with our showroom partners. See Stockists, or write to the studio to arrange a visit.
