The sourcing story

Our long-term work is to discover exceptional goods, understand where they came from and bring them into Canada through a professional import and distribution operation.

That means looking beyond the expected: working directly with makers, workshops and suppliers internationally, and choosing pieces for the quality of their materials, their workmanship and their ability to change a room.

Canada · Islands · The world

Same spirit.
Different shores.

There is a familiar spirit shared by lake places everywhere: respect for weathered materials, useful beauty and things made to last. From Muskoka and Georgian Bay to the islands and regions where our objects originate, water shapes how people live with place.
