Since founding Cox London in 2005, this husband and wife team has created a thriving and esteemed business out of making functional art pieces. With a lovely story behind them, Nicola and Christopher met while studying sculpture in London. Nicola went on to art school to further study sculpture while Christopher went into the family antique business with an interest in metalwork restoration and lighting design.
Selecting top artisans, Cox London has earned a wonderful reputation for quality and unique design… something not easy to come by in today’s world where most things only aspire to earn the title “handmade”! Client specifications play a huge part in the end product and you can rest assured that your piece will be lovingly treated and reborn as exactly what you desired.
Known for their work in bronze, brass, glass and steel; we especially love the rich textures. Lucky for us, a partnership with Rose Tarlow was reached in May of 2014 and now, these unique and handmade pieces are all the more accessible to us and our clients!
