Our Story
Stephen Marks Limited was founded in North Canterbury, New Zealand, several years after Stephen and his family emigrated from England.
From the very beginning, our focus has been on creating bespoke furniture that combines timeless design with exceptional craftsmanship.
Each piece is thoughtfully designed and built to last, with frames handcrafted from premium New Zealand Southland Beech and finished with tailored upholstery for comfort, style, and longevity.
We are delighted to now offer Troynorth Trimmings and Warwick Fabrics as part of our range. These luxurious fabrics, along with our carefully curated collections of coordinated tassel tiebacks, trims, and braids—used in our work since 2007—are now available for you to create your own bespoke statement pieces.
To make selecting colours and fabrics easier, we offer a sample service. Simply choose the “Can I have a Sample” option on any product, and we’ll send you a swatch or sample length so you can see and feel it before committing.
