General information

Short Summary

A Polish manufacturer specializing in luxurious, handcrafted gilt leather according to traditional craftsmanship is seeking interior designers, furniture designers, and designers of accessories and other items that can incorporate gilt leather to offer its products worldwide. The company's portfolio includes many gilt leather patterns, but customization is also available.

Full Description

Consiste is an experienced family-owned company specializing in the conservation of historical monuments, run by two sisters since 2005. The co-owners place a special emphasis on high levels of expertise in the conservation work they undertake, collaborating with top experts in the fields of conservation, art history, architecture, and many other industries crucial to the process of preserving historical monuments.

Since 2015, Consiste has been involved in activities related to exclusive gifts and furnishing luxury interiors. The foundation of this activity is the only workshop of its kind in Poland and one of the few in Europe specializing in gilt leather – leather decorated through silvering, embossing, and painting. This forgotten craft is now preserved and continued in the Consiste workshop.

For interior designers, they offer gilt leather wall coverings (leather wallpapers), wall decorations based on historical and contemporary patterns, original leather artwork, and material for use in the production of luxury furniture.

For designers of unique utility objects, they offer material to create interior decorations, leather goods, luxury product packaging, and jewelry.

The company's portfolio includes many gilt leather patterns, but customization is also available. They offer consultation and counseling regarding the use of gilt leather in a given product. They cooperate at the design stage (providing details concerning dimensions, mounting methods, etc.) and then supply the gilt leather for production. In the case of wall coverings, they typically mount the gilt leather panels on-site.

Advantages and Innovations

Uniqueness: In Central and Eastern Europe, this is the only workshop manufacturing gilt leather, and there are only a few such workshops in all of Europe.
Handcrafted: The leather is covered with silver leaves and decorated by hand, giving the products their unique character.
Revived Craftsmanship: The present activity derives from a long history of family efforts to revive a forgotten craft.

As a material supplier, they offer interior designers, as well as manufacturers and designers of accessories, furniture, and more, the following:

a. The possibility of producing short series – since they work by hand, there is no minimum order requirement. However, it should be noted that larger series result in a lower price per piece.

b. The possibility of special orders. Clients often approach them with individual ideas or needs (such as particularly exclusive gifts or impressive packaging for very valuable items). They design in consultation with the client to create unique items that meet these needs.

c. The ability to seek individual solutions. Thanks to their team of art conservators and artists, they can meet very high aesthetic standards, think innovatively, and be open to unconventional orders.

d. A commission system for designers.
