Bespoke Tabletops and Bases - Camino Canary Wharf

Some gorgeous new photo's of our bespoke tables at Camino's Peurto Del Canario in Canary Wharf. Working with our friends at Sector Sixteen design, Defrae were asked to produce bespoke table tops to fit banquette seating matching the style of existing tables. We hope you agree the results look stunning.


DeFrae's bespoke tabletops were finished in a solid ash polished clear to match existing tops. The table tops were produced to a 40mm thickness with polished edge to match.


Our Dream Table bases finished the look with a black circular pedestal & column.  The Dream is a tulip-shaped table base available in either a polished or brushed stainless steel finish. The footprint of the base is 560mm Diameter. This base will support a maximum top size of 900mm x 900mm or 1300mm Diameter. Coffee and bar height options are also available making this a popular table base for bars, hotels and restaurants.

Bespoke Tabletops and Dream table bases complete a very contemporary look at this very popular bar in the heart of London's Canary Wharf.

Headboards, Scatter Cushions and Side Tables from DeFrae.
The complete boutique look including Belle Armchair.

The Belle Armchair is a gorgeous and stylish addition to any commercial environment. The popular medallion back and the luxurious arms and seat, ensure comfort as well as style. The Belle is the perfect armchair for hotels and restaurants alike.

Working with interior designers all items were produced to the Client’s exact drawings demonstrating DeFrae’s expertise in the Hotel industry to create this boutique hotel’s inspirational feel.

"Having used Danni to supply seating previously, I set her a new challenge – a 22 bedroom hotel – in Switzerland – on very tight timescales. I designed the entire range of bespoke furniture, and approved a wood sample - Danni made sure the rest just happened! As agreed – on time, on budget, and exceeding quality expectations – all the furniture made it to the hotel and my client was extremely pleased with the result. The moral of this short story – don’t assume Danni can only provide what you see on her website – it appears that anything is possible. Her enthusiasm and ‘can do’ attitude will serve her well – and I will most definitely be using Defrae again, and again." - Louise Coombs, Head of Interior Design

"We would like to say a big thank you to the team at Defrae and especially Danni Pushkin.  Phase one of the hotel renovation entailed the hotel being closed for a very short period of twelve weeks.  Opening on time was imperative, Danni ensured that the furniture was manufactured and delivered on time to Switzerland.  The quality of the furniture is outstanding and looks fabulous in the hotel.  Danni was calm and extremely efficient during what was a manic period and overcame any situation we threw at her!  Phase two starts in April 2013 and we look forward to working with Defrae for this project also." Tanya Willmott, Hotel Bellevue Wiesen AG, Switzerland

The Hotel-Restaurant Bellevue is a small hotel with a big personality.
The warm and friendly rooms are currently being gradually updated, with loving care for tradition, a sense of ‘Gemütlichkeit’ and an eye for playful detail. Following an initial stage of the renovation our hotel celebrated its reopening in December 2010.
Honest, genuine and with passionate about hospitality, the 21 rooms, restaurant with Winter garden and a unique panoramic view of the Graubünden mountain landscape, invite guests to spend a relaxing break for two, or for a social gathering with family and friends.
