Very Good & Proper design and manufacture carefully considered, practical and beautiful products – products built to last using quality materials and craftsmanship.

Our signature pieces include the Canteen Table, Hook & Knob, and Utility Chair, all of which were our first commission for the Great British Food restaurant Canteen. This capsule collection was launched at the London Design Festival in 2009, where VG&P proved popular for both commercial and domestic interiors.

VG&P collaborates with leading architects, interior designers and furniture dealers around the world, and our products are also purchased directly by individuals and companies for their homes and businesses.

VG&P designers include company director Ed Carpenter, André Klauser, Michael Marriott, and Henry Wilson. We take a hands-on approach to what we do, working with our suppliers to inform our design and achieve the best results. The quality of our products comes first and we never compromise on materials or manufacturing.

VG&P products are built to last and manufactured responsibly. We make all of our products in the UK and Europe, with a carefully selected network of material suppliers and fabricators. Every order is assembled and checked at our headquarters before dispatch.

The Very Good & Proper by-line is ‘Measure twice, cut once’ – sage advice that captures the commitment to quality, sense of playfulness and attention to detail expressed in our products.
