We’ve been making impeccably stylish, beautifully designed products, principally in white, for over 25 years. Think style not fashion, quality not quantity and an attention to detail that extends through everything we do – from the hand-stitching on a luxurious high thread-count pillowcase to our second-to-none customer service.
We believe it’s the little things that matter. Precious moments of uncomplicated happiness are our constant inspiration and it is with those in mind that we design and create edited collections made to last and become an intimate part of our lives.
We spend time developing our product ranges and put the same care and attention to detail into selecting the best people to join our growing and innovative business. From retail stores and ecommerce to Buying & Merchandising, quality experts, our support services, qualified accountants and visual/creative experts - The White Company inspires passion from all its people, and a genuine commitment to each other.
Barker and Stonehouse is the UK's largest independent, family-run furniture retailer bringing you the finest in quality, style and value since 1946.
Here's a bit of background about who we are and what we do...
A FAMILY HERITAGE
Britain, 1946. Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse decided that this drab and dreary ration-book nation needed a little cheering up. To that end they opened the very first Barker & Stonehouse store in Stockton, and began, what has since become, a nationwide network of fine furniture and accessory stores.

CARE AND CONSIDERATION
We know that environmental responsibility is something that you really care about. Over the last few years, we have strived to help protect the environment. We hope you agree, by reducing our carbon footprint by 50%, we’ve made a good start.
QUALITY SERVICE FROM STORE TO DOOR
We employ our own in-house highly experienced and efficient delivery team. They’re adept at delivering furniture to homes of all shapes and sizes and can overcome most of the physical challenges of awkward spaces, many stairs and tight accesses, with ease.
