Bronze Mini Koi Fish Sculpture, Large by Alexander Lamont

Alexander Lamont, Designer-Craftsman British designer Alexander Lamont has always been interested in enigmatic textures, forms and materials; ‘surfaces that call out to be touched’. The journey to make such furniture, lighting and objects in the 21st century - requiring time and hard-won skills for each piece - took him to Thailand where over two decades he has built celebrated workshops housing ateliers for straw marquetry inlay, shagreen, parchment, eggshell and natural lacquer and gilding techniques among others. Alexander Lamont’s luxurious and contemporary designs are coupled with an uncompromising approach to innovation, craftsmanship and quality achieved through the mastery of ancient skills and techniques and a willingness to break through those same traditions. The designer’s exquisite, handcrafted pieces bring with them a sense of journey and discovery while communicating playfulness, texture and refined quality. The creations of Alexander Lamont’s studio and workshops are made to fall in love with, to be treasured and touched and to bring to their owners a joyful communion with the great traditions of workshop excellence and a unique design sensibility.
