Vincent Sheppard

Vincent Sheppard has been designing and manufacturing indoor and outdoor furniture since 1992, with headquarters in Spiere, Belgium, and a showroom in Bellegem near Kortrijk. Designs are made in Belgium and finished there as well, by painters, seamstresses and designers working alongside the design team.

The company describes itself as worldwide market leader in Lloyd Loom furniture, a technique in which kraft paper is twisted around a metal wire and woven into shaped pieces. To preserve that craft it built its main production plant in Cirebon, Indonesia, in close collaboration with local weavers and rattan makers. Furniture is exported to more than 80 countries and is used in hotels, homes and restaurants.
