Sustainability
There is a scientific article titled “Rethinking Repair.” The author Steven J. Jackson asks the following question in it:
Is it possible to love a world of things – to truly, deeply love it?
Can we have a substantial, ethical, even moral relationship with objects that have long been confined to pure functionalism? What if we could build new and different forms of solidarity with our objects – and they with us?
Every year in Europe, more than 10 million tons of furniture end up in the trash. Hardly any of this waste is recycled. Many people have lost their connection to the things that surround them. The furniture industry responds by producing furniture that breaks after just a few years.
And are not repairable. We don't want to be part of this industry. MCF sells furniture that you can love. That you don't want to throw away because they mean something to you. And that you also don't have to throw away because they are high-quality enough to last a lifetime. There are things in the world that are carved from a different wood. From a time when good design and quality were more important than quantities, prices, and packaging size for transport around the globe. And with these things, we show solidarity. By finding them, collecting them, repairing, refurbishing, and putting them back into circulation. Into your home. Where they get a second life.
When people acquire our vintage furniture, it's rarely about labels, but rather about a feeling and the expression of their own identity. These pieces are collected, not simply bought. They give a home meaning. These pieces of furniture tell stories and are very beautiful. They invite us to perceive them, to write new stories with them, and to care for them. Because our hearts are attached to them. For us, sustainability means: treasure what you already have – buy what can stay with you for a lifetime.
