NICH accepts a small number of commissions each year — singular works conceived for a specific space, project or collector, and made entirely by hand in the studio.
A commission is not a custom order from a catalogue. It is an invitation for the studio to respond, in wool, to a place and an intention.
We start from very little, on purpose: a note of intention, a palette, the spirit of a room, a feeling you want the piece to hold.
From that starting point, the studio takes over the composition, the geometry, the materials and the making. This is what keeps a commission a real NICH work rather than a reproduction to brief — the same creative control that defines the collections is what guarantees the result will feel alive, not designed to order. The more room you leave, the stronger the piece.
A few works from the collections, installed. Commissions follow the same language and craft — re-composed for your space, dimensions and light.
You share the essentials — the space, a palette or mood, the feeling you're after, the dimensions. A few images are often enough.
We talk it through and agree the frame: scale, materials, timeline and budget — while leaving the creative decisions with the studio.
The piece is composed, dyed and hand-tufted in the studio. You receive a few moments from the making; the work reveals itself as it grows.
Framed, finished and signed, with its certificate of authenticity. Shipped worldwide, with installation guidance for larger works.
“Give me the intention, not the drawing. The moment a commission is over-specified, it stops being a work and becomes a product. My job is to translate what you feel into something you couldn't have asked for.”
