Award-Winning Furniture & Home Accessories in Shenstone
Established in 2015, Emily Charlotte is a boutique furniture and home accessories business rooted in creativity and craftsmanship. Our journey began during my studies in Art and Design at Birmingham City University, where I developed a passion for transforming pre-loved furniture into bespoke pieces. Based in Shenstone near Lichfield, we specialise in restoring vintage furniture and upholstery to the highest standards, combining meticulous attention to detail with a love for artistic reinvention. Our commitment to sustainability drives us to rescue furniture from disposal, giving it a renewed purpose while preserving its character. Alongside our curated collection of home dcor and gifts, many of which celebrate our shared love for dogs, we offer expert guidance and workshops to empower others in their creative projects.As official stockists of Frenchic Furniture Paint, we provide both products and expertise to help customers achieve professional results in their own spaces. Our workshops, designed for all skill levels, foster a community of creativity where participants learn techniques to transform furniture at home. From humble beginnings in a student project that gained recognition at Birmingham Library's opening exhibition, we have grown into a trusted destination for unique, handcrafted pieces and personalised service. Our team combines years of hands-on experience with a dedication to sharing knowledge, ensuring every customer feels confident in their creative endeavours. Whether you're seeking statement furniture, decorative accents, or a new hobby, we strive to make quality craftsmanship accessible and inspiring.
