Shagreen is celebrated for its softly textured surface and natural depth, offering a refined alternative to flat finishes. At Forwood Design, our shagreen collection is created for homeowners and interior designers seeking timeless materials that introduce warmth, balance, and understated sophistication into a space.
Recognised by its distinctive pebbled appearance, shagreen has been associated with craftsmanship and luxury since the 16th century. It gained prominence in European decorative arts through the work of Jean-Claude Galuchat, bringing the material into refined interiors where texture and detail matter.
Our signature faux shagreen is sustainably produced and completely cruelty-free. Developed to closely replicate the tactile quality of traditional shagreen, it is also highly durable and practical for everyday use—ideal for both residential interiors and professionally designed spaces.
The collection spans trays, mirrors, photo frames, barware, desk accessories, lighting, and games sets. Each design is finished with elegant brass or stainless steel accents, creating a clean, architectural balance that complements both contemporary and classic interiors.
Whether styled as a subtle accent or used throughout a room, shagreen layers beautifully with wood, stone, glass, and metal, bringing cohesion and quiet luxury to any interior.
