Chrome base

Custom-made chrome base

The custom-made chrome base:
when high-end comes into your living room

Our job, and we are proud of it, is to make the very special art of placing bases on objects accessible to everyone.
We mount bases for all types of objects, from crucifixes to arrowheads. We create a custom-made base for each one.
Most of the time, a custom-made base is the result of a conversation with the customer who comes to our workshop boutique at the Puces de Paris Saint-Ouen.
We discuss the choice of materials to use, such as steel or wood, for example, or the shape the base should take.
At the end of this conversation, we know whether we need to make a base in steel, brass or wood as well as the finishing touches we need to add to the base in question.
Our possibilities are very broad.
If we had to explain our range, we would say that: the entry-level product is steel and our high-end product is the custom-made brass base.
In any case, these two materials allow for the creation of truly remarkable custom bases. However, certain finishes or shapes are only possible with a specific material.
And then there are projects that are out of the ordinary. Exceptional projects that force us to push the boundaries of our work even further. That's what happened when we created this custom-made base with Finitone chrome.

The custom-made chrome base: the Rolls Royce of
presentation solutions


Offering a custom-made base in a chrome finish is truly exceptional.
Why, you might ask?
Chrome work is a very meticulous task. Several steps are necessary to fix the material to the support.
The base is then dipped in chrome baths. Several baths are required if you want to achieve a mirror effect.

It was Liaigre, the famous architectural firm, who entrusted us with the creation of this base.
This custom-made base is made up of several pieces, each of which is chrome-plated separately.
The client's specific request was to achieve a mirror effect. And only using chrome allows this.
The various elements of the base are first made of brass, then subsequently covered with chrome using the bath system.
The custom-made chrome base benefits from all the advantages of the custom-made base.
The advantages of custom-made bases include: great flexibility in the use of the material. With brass, creating custom bases with original shapes becomes very easy. Don't hesitate to let your imagination run wild.
