Steinway charged top dollar for his pianos. He had to. He wasn’t using balsa wood & paper glue. 

Enzo Ferrari didn’t make many cars. Each one a masterpiece. You waited, even if you were filthy rich, and you loved it forever. Still do.

 The Saville Row suit maker doesn’t make average things for an average price. In my previous life in film, I was lucky enough to be able to afford the odd bespoke suit. They cost a bomb. But my god the result. The fit, the style, the comfort, the service, the experience! Wonderful. But damned expensive. Worth every penny. A huge inspiration for FRAHM.

Many of us have lost faith because a fair exchange of cash for product is no longer the norm. You buy into a major brand as an assurance. But so many brands, now backed by big money, lean on brand reputation. A product that’s over-promised, that under-delivers. Disappointment. 

It’s short-term thinking. Get the money now. Then run away!

This is how brands die. Slowly, imperceptibly, we lose faith in them and move on, tired of busted stitching, arms that are too tight, crappy pockets that don’t fit your hands, service that says no. Then they go into Sale, to recover revenue targets they’re missing, so they discount heavily. This kills their margin, so they regain it by reducing quality, which makes their reputation fall further. A slow death.

Which, frankly, and rightly (Darwin’s survival of the fittest!) is where we are thriving. Make a fair promise, over-deliver. Time and again our reviews say “Finally got my first FRAHM, and it’s even better than I hoped!”

Investment pieces. 

You don’t pay for the label. The label is a badge of assurance, not the value itself. We don’t sell on image, but results.

We’re damned proud. And we’re not cheap. We’re unapologetic about that.
