British craftsmanship
adding style and quality to any living space
IN 1916 NATHAN FURNITURE WAS BORN. A DESIRE TO DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE BEAUTIFUL AND
ELEGANT FURNITURE WAS THE VISION OF BARNETT NATHAN - AND TO THIS DAY HIS VISION LIVES ON AT
NATHANS FACTORY NESTLED IN BRONTE COUNTRY IN THE HEART OF YORKSHIRE
PROUD TO BE A PART OF THOUSANDS OF HOMES
NATHAN
When Barnett Nathan, a furniture maker of Russian origin, began to manufacture handcrafted pieces of furniture in
1916, it was the middle of the Great War and perhaps not the ideal time to embark on a furniture making business.
Indeed Barnett soon had to supplement income by manufacturing munitions boxes for the Government. At the end of
the war Barnett was joined by his two brothers and despite the great hardships of the time, the three of them were
able to use their furniture making skills to develop a business with a reputation in the trade for fine craftsmanship and
good quality.
In 1952 the second generation of the family came into the business. Barnett's sons Jerrold and Clive were the
catalysts for developing a brand name. The Company began to specialize in dining room furniture and invested
heavily in designing and marketing its products.
INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION WAS GAINED IN 1954 WHEN
THE COMPTON DINING SUITE WAS CHOSEN TO REPRESENT THE
BEST OF BRITISH DESIGN AT A MAJOR FURNITURE ExHIBITION IN
NEW YORK. A STEADY STREAM OF NEW AND CONTEMPORARY
PRODUCTS WERE qUICKLY BROUGHT TO THE MARKET.
The most successful of which was the Courtier dining suite which was light mahogany in colour with contrasting black
legs - quite a radical design for its day.
In 1963 Barnett's eldest son Jerrold took the brave decision to develop a Scandinavian styled range in teak - a decision
that was to mould the company’s future and influence the products that we sell to this day. Under advertisements
proclaiming 'Scandinavia Design by Nathan' the first range of teak furniture called Citadel was launched. Now
considered to be a design classic, the styling was simple and elegant with no decoration other than plain recessed
handles.
Citadel was an outstanding success and other teak ranges quickly followed.
Throughout the 1960's Jerrold Nathan continued to experiment with interesting new looks (primarily in teak) and the
Company moved further up-market with the launch of an innovative sideboard with a circle pattern cut into the
veneer on the doors.
1970 saw the introduction of the 1024 sideboard which was the first piece featuring the distinctive Jacobean door
design and as such was the foundation piece of the 'Classic Collection’. This unit attracted an unexpectedly large
amount of public interest and by 1972 the designer, Patrick Lee, had introduced a range of wall units in the same
style. Patrick's vision was to create a range of furniture for dining and living rooms, or to blend between the two with
one consistent look. These design principles of flexibility and collectability have ensured that our Classic range of
furniture has been a success for over 35 years and is one of the best selling furniture collections of all time.
OUR STORY IS AN INTERESTING ONE
NATHAN TODAY
PROUD OF OUR HERITAGE TODAY
Today Nathan and its sister company are based at Frostholme Mill on the
Yorkshire/Lancashire border. Frostholme Mill in the village of Cornholme was a cotton mill
and where the industrial revolution took hold and catapulted the world into the industrial era.
In the second half of the 1800s 90% of all the cotton spun was produced within a few short
miles from here, the steep valleys and plentiful water supply was the perfect combination to
provide the right atmosphere to produce cotton yarn and cloth.
The mill was built in 1861 and had a steam powered weaving shed with 400 looms and by 1887 this had risen to
over 1,000 looms employing more than 600 people. Cotton continued to be woven at Frostholme Mill until 1968
when it was one of the last mills to stop weaving in the area. Shortly afterward it became a furniture factory.
Today we have one of the largest furniture manufacturing units supplying the retail trade in the UK of upper
middle market furniture. The mill continues to produce high quality furniture for the Nathan and Sutcliffe
Brands.
