To begin to plan a special occasion or celebratory meal, no matter who may be your preferred chef, you need to provide the right environment and
equipment. The material of the kitchen worktop is key for functionality as well as aesthetics. For starters, considering durability and cleanliness, through to pleasure of
touch. A Henge marble surface is honed, smooth, sensual and characterful like skin. The Henge metals are rarefied whether forged bronze, the subtle sheen of the gold-
plated kitchen more understated than ostentatious, or the silver panels of the boiserie seemingly like antique Venetian mirrors. Each is chosen and allowed to oxidise
naturally to develop further character and beauty over time. Never too bright, never dull, but simply celebrated for their innate qualities. The patina comes from the marks
and memories of a good life. Materiality is the starting point for Henge and everything else follows, from selecting the finest craftsmanship to the design treatment. From
surface materials through to every hinge and fixing, all elements are treated with special care and attention to detail, and crafted with love.
