Impeccable craftsmanship meets collectible-worthy beauty in the timelessly designed furniture by Baker Furniture, in collaboration with world-class designers such as Barbara Barry, Thomas Pheasant and Laura Kirar.
Tatler Focus
Similar to the old-world wineries of Bordeaux and Burgundy, staying loyal to tradition is very much part of the DNA for Baker Furniture. Except, that tradition is melding its pool of design knowledge with the creative juices of lauded guest designers, to create sophisticated, functional pieces for the home.
The pieces exude an elegant, contemporary American style, prioritising comfort, simplicity and timelessness over hyperbolic avant-garde aspirations—a philosophy Proof Living appreciates. And the luxury home furniture and accessory company hears the calls of its customers for such designs, answering them with a dedicated showroom, dubbed the Baker and Barbara Barry Gallery, at Paragon shopping mall.
Bracelet Chair
Its creative mastermind, the acclaimed designer Barbara Barry, deems it a signature piece in her collection. The sentiment is sure to echo among aesthetes. Defined by a trio of wooden ovals—see the backrest—and a velvety seat, the Bracelet Chair doesn’t try too hard; it doesn’t scream for attention so much as commands for your admiration.
Open Oval China Cabinet
The walnut-hued Open Oval China Cabinet is extolled for its vintage charm. See the softly curved glass and wooden grille doors that open, with the turn of a tasselled key, to a spacious storage space with adjustable shelves and interior lights. Bronze hardware add a finishing touch to its old-world appeal.
Oval X-Back Dining Side Chair
Another distinction of Barbara Barry’s is this classy dining chair, which bears the designer’s iconic X motif as its wooden back frame. It also features a cushiony seat and backrest so snug, your dinner guests may overstay their welcome.
Faux Parchment End Table
The Faux Parchment End Table by Barbara Barry brings back memories of the quirky 60s with its minimalist overtones and tapered legs. Yet it lends a modern disposition from its deliberate use of sharp lines and muted colour palette.
Gallery Sofa
Caution: do not park the Gallery Sofa anywhere near your office at home; you’ll want nothing but to lie down on it for an eye shut. Its plushness is poised with a tailored appearance that makes it fit for any space from a gentlemen's club to a cosmopolite’s abode.
Ritz Dining Chair
Dreamed up by famed interior designer Thomas Pheasant for Baker Furniture, the Ritz Dining Chair harks back to salon chairs of the ’40s. Simply composed but luxurious in looks and cosiness, the chair will work whether it’s placed alone or with companions in your home.
