      <image:title>Journal - Marchmont House - The Candelabra - Spencer House, London</image:title>
      <image:caption>built between 1756 and 1766, was not just a family home and a venue for entertaining; it was also a private art gallery where the Spencer family could show off some of the most prized objects from their collection.  Today, Spencer House continues this tradition, containing an impressive assembly of paintings, furniture and other decorative objects carefully chosen to reflect the tastes of Lord and Lady Spencer and their contemporaries in the second half of the eighteenth century.  Among the pieces on display are several objects original to the house, commissioned by the Spencers to decorate their new London home.  The current collection has been greatly enhanced through many generous loans from both private lenders and national museums including the Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, Tate, Royal Collection Trust and Leeds Museums and Galleries.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Marchmont House - The Candelabra - James “Athenian” Stuart</image:title>
      <image:caption>is widely recognised for his central role in pioneering Neoclassicism, developing his influential career across various fields of interior decoration, sculpture, furnishing, metalwork and architecture. Born in London in 1713, Stuart showed talent as an artist even as a child and was apprenticed to a fan painter. In 1742 he moved to Italy to improve his artistic skills. While there, Stuart worked as a painter and guide to antiquities while studying art and architecture and also learning Italian, Latin and Greek.  In 1751 Stuart visited Greece with Nicholas Revett to measure and record antiquities. The creation of the ‘Greek Style’ and its impact on British Design in the late 18th century is largely due to Stuart and Revett’s landmark publication ‘Antiquities of Athens’. The book was the first accurate record of Classical Greek architecture and served as a principal source book for architects and designers well into the 19th century. Stuart’s furniture and metalware designs were eclectic in design, fusing Baroque forms with elements taken from early French and Neoclassicism. They also included direct copies of Greek and Roman ornament and furniture types.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>is a gold-coloured alloy of copper, zinc, and tin used in decorating furniture and making ornaments. The term originally referred to a process in which powdered gold was mixed with mercury and used to gild metal, a technique that was banned in the 19th century on account of its toxicity from the mercury released in to the atmosphere during the heating process. A new safer modern technique was needed to replicate the process.  FRD approached a company who specialised in electroplated gold, carrying out numerous tests to ensure the colour matched perfectly with the original ornaments.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Marchmont House -    The Lanterns - NEW OWNERSHIP</image:title>
      <image:caption>In 1988, the wider Marchmont Estate, along with a right of pre-emption on Marchmont House, was purchased as an investment by Marchmont Farms Limited (MFL) of which Mr Oliver Burge was the managing director.  The house, in the ownership of the Sue Ryder Foundation, eventually proved difficult to operate as a care home, closed in 2005, in a deteriorated state and was entered on the Register of Buildings at Risk.  MFL exercised their pre-emption right to purchase the house in 2006 more-or-less watertight but in a semi-derelict state internally.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In 2018 Marchmont was awarded the Historic Houses Award, sponsored by Sotheby's, for its seven-year restoration, and the Georgian Group 2017 Architectural Award for best restoration of a Georgian interior.  The house contains some of the finest Georgian interiors in Scotland, Lorimer's magnificent oak-panelled Music Room, exquisite original plasterwork, and an eclectic art and furniture collection spanning 550 years of art history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Marchmont House -    The Lanterns - RESTORATION &amp; RE-CREATION</image:title>
      <image:caption>With only four original lanterns remaining in the property; FRD were commissioned to reproduce eighteen replica lanterns.  Francis recalls how re-creating the metalwork for the “Lorimer lanterns” was not the difficult part; it was the incredibly tricky curved, frosted and textured glass that proved to be more challenging.  FRD prides itself on being “Designers &amp; Makers”, and this encompasses all areas of metalwork, along with forming glass; so regardless of the challenges he faced Francis knew that it was possible to achieve - eventually.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Guild Anderson’s interview with Francis Russell - Toleware</image:title>
      <image:caption>It was then during the 1980’s that his parent’s friends, Michael and Anne Tree, approached him to help develop a range of lanterns and tulipieres using the revival technique of Toleware.  Michael was the son of Nancy Lancaster; the 20th-century tastemaker and the owner of Colefax &amp; Fowler.  A successful business was formed, with the help of Francis’s mother, and they produced John Fowler tulipieres and lanterns, as well as a range of hand painted Toleware with some pieces inspired by stately homes. Toleware refers to practical objects created from thin steel metal, and are often then painted using floral, fruit or other decorative designs.  It was originally produced in 18th century when a sheet metalworker in Pontypool called John Hanbury produced practical metal wares that were rust-proof.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Commissioning Luxury Bespoke Metalwork - WHAT IS LUXURY BESPOKE METALWORK?</image:title>
      <image:caption>At its core, bespoke metalwork is the design and fabrication of custom metal elements tailored to a client’s specific vision. “Luxury” denotes not only the use of premium materials like bronze, stainless steel, brass, or patinated iron, but also the level of craftsmanship, finish quality, and often artistic intent behind the work. FRD’s unique approach to metal work means that we collaborate with numerous other crafts people such as cabinet makers, stone masons, glass blowers and formers, as well as leatherworkers, or upholsterers.  Our in-house abilities are coupled with a network of trusted, skilled artisans in the broader decorative arts. At FRD each commission is individually designed and crafted to deliver on the quantity and quality required.  FRD have collaborated with incredible international brands; from interior designers to architects, artists to stately homes.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Commissioning Luxury Bespoke Metalwork - WHY CHOOSE BESPOKE METALWORK?</image:title>
      <image:caption>FRD specialise in offering a full design to inception approach to commissioning luxury bespoke metal work that enables our client’s vision become reality. TIMELESS CRAFTSMANSHIP - Bespoke metalwork often involves traditional hand-forging techniques, modern fabrication, and fine finishing, resulting in a piece that is not only functional but heirloom-worthy. UNIQUE IDENTITY - No two projects are the same. Every design is tailored, from classical motifs to contemporary minimalism—to suit the space, the client, and the intended mood. MATERIAL INTEGRITY - From aged bronze to mirror-polished stainless steel, high-end metalwork offers a material palette that both performs and elevates aesthetics. LONGEVITY &amp; SUSTAINABILITY - Metalwork, when well-designed and properly finished, lasts generations. The living finishes weather beautifully and require minimal upkeep.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Commissioning Luxury Bespoke Metalwork - Design Development</image:title>
      <image:caption>A conceptual design is produced, often as hand sketches, CAD drawings, or 3D renders. This may go through several iterations until it captures the precise vision. We can then provide samples of finishes, patinas, or prototype elements at this stage. Once the design is approved, technical drawings are developed for fabrication.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Commissioning Luxury Bespoke Metalwork - Making</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is where the magic happens. Contemporary techniques combined with traditional skills bring the design to life. Expect frequent updates and, in some cases, studio visits to view the piece in progress.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Journal - Commissioning Luxury Bespoke Metalwork - Finishing</image:title>
      <image:caption>We have a wealth of experience with a extensive range of finishing processes. High-end metalwork is all about the final finishing—brushed versus mirror polish, custom patinas, or hand-applied textures. The metal is polished, textured, patinated, assembled. The finishing team assemble any works from other artisans to create the final piece.</image:caption>
