Retrorepublic supplies superior quality replicas of 20th century design icons. How often have you shuddered at a cheap copy of a Barcelona chair?
We bridge the gap between the extortionate and the unrefined. The calibre of our products is as high as the originals and in some cases superior.
Many companies in the furniture sector operate as 'drop shippers' - securing your order before manufacturing in the Far East and importing the item into the UK. This is why many sellers quote 12 weeks for delivery.
We are different. We hold 95% of production stock in the UK and we
never deal with a 3rd party supplier (which can cause delays or warranty
problems). Consequently, after payment, we usually deliver within 7 days.

Using modern manufacturing techniques, and insisting on the highest specification in look, feel and quality, retorepublic aims to provide the best of modernist design without auction house prices. Our range includes tables, chairs, sofas, clocks, lights and soft furnishings for a complete interior look.
We only use durable Italian leather; we use wooden fittings where others make do with plastic; if an original chair was made with robust fiberglass we do not reproduce it in inferior plastic resin; our cotton material is a tough gaberdine weave; our stainless steel is grade 304; we specify ash, beech and rosewood not cotton wood or pine; our frames are original gauge and welded to last.
Despite our reasonable prices, we pay meticulous attention to the shape, superior engineering and components of the original.
We look forward to welcoming you to the republic! |
