All Perch! products are handmade in Brooklyn New York...our small team consists of Amy, Jim, Gus the cat and usually one or two talented young designers. Most perch! products are multifunctional objects that allow the owner to decide what to do with them. Perch! products are environmentally friendly - low impact materials and processes, non-toxic finishes and byproducts. We do our best to keep our shipping practices low impact as well. Perch! is an advocate for a design process with time for research and fine tuning, manufacturing that supports local industries, workshops and craftspeople.
