Jan Cray Möbel represents the perfect bonding of wood and metal. They exude an understanding of classic design but also a curiosity for practical form. With a meticulous attention to detail, they are intended for everyday use – but made to last a lifetime. The man behind the furniture concepts is also at home in two worlds. While his learned profession gives him an experienced hand working with metal, Jan Cray has been fascinated by wood since he was a small boy. His designs are the meeting of these two passions. Easy to see when you look at them. Easy to feel when you use them. And it’s also good to know that the furniture is produced with a responsible use of resources.

Jan Cray uses only high-quality recycled wood, obtained from domestic sources. Companies based in the Hamburg area manufacture the metal elements. And the woodwork itself takes place in Jan Cray’s own workshop in Hamburg-Altona where all the elements are then brought together. The result is top-quality, highly unique and scalable furniture concepts that develop an individual character wherever they stand – in offices, in the home, in bars or cafes. Wherever the furniture’s design can unfold and flourish. Or as Jan Cray would say: where form works.
