US Trade Programme — Interior Designers & Specifiers
US interior designers have been quietly ordering from Birmingham for years — mother-of-pearl knobs on a townhouse renovation, knurled satin-brass pulls on a wine-country kitchen, hand-thrown ceramic in a historic restoration. The US Trade Programme is the formal version of what has already been happening: direct access to the workshop, sample kits by return post, and pricing that reflects the volume you specify.
The programme is purpose-built for US interior designers, kitchen designers, architects, and specifiers. Every piece is hand-cast, hand-finished, and hand-inspected at our Birmingham workshop, then shipped DDP to your studio or the client's site — duties and taxes pre-paid at checkout, no border surprises when the crate lands.
Why trade
Four reasons the US design community works with us directly:
- DDP shipping, always. Every US shipment leaves Birmingham with duties and taxes pre-paid. The number you quote your client is the number they pay. No surprise brokerage invoice three weeks after installation. No project halted at the port.
- Sample kits within 48 hours. A complimentary sample kit of the pieces you are considering, sent by express courier the same or next business day. Handle the ceramic, feel the weight of the brass, see the finish under your client's lighting before you specify.
- Trade discount of 25–30% off retail on every order, no minimum. The discount scales with volume for full-house specifications and multi-unit developments.
- Direct-line to the workshop. Custom finish requests — an aged patina to match an existing door set, a slightly deeper knurl, a bespoke ceramic glaze — go straight to the craftsperson making the piece. Not a customer-service triage queue.
