Why Details Matter

Since 2009, Made Goods has transformed unique materials in unexpected ways and has been drawn to the natural charm of raw materials.

We work with craftspeople around the world, many carrying on techniques passed down through generations. With each piece being crafted by hand, slight variations in color and shape are part of the process, not an exception to it, making each item truly one-of-a-kind.

Our Philosophy

Each material is chosen for its unusual character and shaped by thoughtful hands, because details matter. Explore what makes each versatile piece unique.

Shaped by Nature

Natural Variations
in Rattan

Rattan's strength lies in its versatility. Durable and easy to bend, it forms clean, sculptural lines other materials can't achieve. As a climbing vine, its color naturally shifts with the harvesting season, so no two pieces are ever quite the same.

Each Piece, a Maker's Mark

Bone & Mother
of Pearl Inlay

Bone and mother-of-pearl inlay bring a natural luminosity faux materials can't match. When we use these materials, each piece is meticulously handcrafted by master artisans making each piece its own work of art.

Form Meets Function

Faux Materials

Faux materials are cast from their natural counterparts, capturing every texture and variation without the fragility. From faux raffia to faux Belgian linen to faux shagreen, each one replicates the character of the real thing while standing up to daily life.

A Life of its Own

Hair-on-Hide

Each pattern and marking of hide is nature's own, giving every piece a look you won't find twice. Add exceptional strength and durability, and hair-on-hide becomes as functional as it is striking.

To Be Expected

Fabric Variation

Because hides vary in color and texture, each piece is entirely unique. The natural variation shows the true characteristics of authentic leather.

Made to Weather

Outdoor Stone
& Concrete Materials

Made Goods' outdoor pieces draw on a range of materials, but reconstituted stone and reinforced concrete stand apart for their durability. Both age with the elements, adding to its character with every season.

With the Grain

Leather

Full-grain leather is cut from the top layer of the hide, making it the most durable part of the material. Naturally sourced, it carries wrinkles, scarring, and natural color variation unique to each hide. Over time, it develops a rich patina, so the leather only grows more distinct with age.
