HOME: WHERE THE HEART IS
ROSE AND HEATHER – BRINGING FINE FURNITURE HOME Rose and Heather has reopened on this side of the city, moving its Auckland showroom and workshop to Great North Road in Grey Lynn. On arrival, clients familiar with the name will once again be enveloped in warmth and familiarity with the R+H classics, new pieces and ranges on display or under construction. The owners of Rose and Heather have lived in Ponsonby for 30 years, and for Martin and Maryjane it’s like coming home again. “We wanted to create a space that showed simple, high elegance. We were keen to show the link between our craftsmanship and finished pieces, as many of us are fascinated with the way things are made. With our small workshop on site, you can see how these pieces are created,” says Martin. “The company has a great website, but there is nothing quite like the feel, smell and touch of the pieces,” says Maryjane. Beautiful colours and simple shapes abound, in a light filled industrial space over two levels, with windows opening in to the workshop. Take the moment to observe the process of fine furniture making.
With the firm's tradition of fine New Zealand craftsmanship and design, the new workshop is not only the company’s space for prototype and bespoke work, but a refurbishment service which can bring those existing Rose and Heather pieces back to the day they first came home. The showroom is open seven days with plenty of parking down the driveway city side, Martin, Maryjane and the team of David, Simon and Ann look forward to welcoming you in.
