Blending a dedication to re-embracing ancient and natural ingredients with a desire to make healthy food accessible to all, Bain-Marie is passionate about making nutrient-dense and healing foods taste divine so you never feel like you are depriving yourself but rather relish in every mouthful.
Another one of our foundational principles is the celebration of organic, local and seasonal ingredients which means cultivating close relationships with British farmers to ensure we always use fresh and sustainably-sourced produce. Even our quinoa is sourced from a local farm in Essex.
At Bain-Marie, we strongly believe that exquisite taste and improved health are a match made in gourmet heaven. Accordingly, our words to live by are “vivre pour manger”, and we do indeed live to eat (well) and hope you’ll join us on our culinary quest for positively delicious food!

Two professional artisans from Goldfinger Factory delivered a workshop at the Macbeth Centre for Hammersmith & Fulham Council staff to promote Recycle Week.Participants transformed redundant pallets into simple pieces of homeware such as photo frames, tea light holders, and wine/magazine racks all in the space of a lunch break!
We hosted thirty sustainability specialists from the John Lewis Partnership (JLP) for their Team Away Day.The aim of the workshop was to allow participants to get to know one another better while having fun and being inspired. They also got to experience the Factory and gain and understanding of the work we do. We delivered 3 upcycling workshops for their staff, making homeware products from reclaimed wood.
Seventeen members of staff from luxury fashion brand Hermes UK and their Global Head of Sustainability, Pierre-Alexandre Bapst, joined us for an evening of creative upcyling and an elegant dinner reception.Working in small groups, participants had their creativity put to the test and were challenged to make the word ‘Recycle’ from scrap wood and other reclaimed materials.
“I wanted to thank you a million for having made the last part of our sustainability seminar so UNIQUE. This evening was like Russian dolls, we went from surprises to surprises in such a smooth and homely feeling. Thanks to each of you individually, for having put so much care, efforts and attention to details.Everyone felt the same way I felt the first time I came to Goldfinger Factory: at home; and everyone was unanimous: this place, the people and the concept it holds is GOLD. It felt right for our teams to be here not only because it was consistent with the theme of our day but also because we’re on the same page : create beautiful objects with a SOUL.
Caroline Fontaine, Sustainability Officer, Hermès GB ”
“The day was a triumph and there is no doubt that this is largely down to two things. Firstly, the work you do is both important and inspiring. Simply being close to something so good, I think, brings out the best in people. Secondly, you and your team couldn’t have been more helpful, accommodating, welcoming or efficient. Everything, from the warm welcome of coffee and rather good rice cakes, through to the upcycling workshops, was splendidly well organised and it all contributed to what was a very successful day from my point of view. I know all the team felt suitably inspired.
Benet Northcote, Group Head of CSR, John Lewis Partnership ”

These bespoke pieces add the perfect balance of modern industrial chic and reclaimed wood to a workspace for you to hang coats, hats and scarves on.
Fetching Frames
Get down to the core of woodworking and construct rustic frames from reclaimed oak that will add character and a story to living rooms and corridors.
Coat Hooks
Armed with a carpenter’s weapons -wood off-cuts, sandpaper and paintbrushes- we will tutor you in the craft of geometric wood mosaics, also known as parquetry. Brilliant for repurposing smaller pieces of leftover wood, this technique transforms bland furniture into statement pieces!
Parquet Partaay
CHOOSE YOUR WORKSHOP
Turn dull into dazzling! Upcycle an object of your choice (a frame, box, jar, pot, stool or table) with waste materials (paper, fabric, wallpaper, maps, magazines, comic books) and create a modern and artistic piece for your home or office.
Stylish SignsLearn the craft of printmaking and hand-print your own inspirational and motivational posters or craft your own wooden sign with reclaimed material to give your office a dose of decoration. Using old canvas paintings, reclaimed wood and scrap material you can create your own word wall art or signs.
Playful PalletsChances are everything in your workspace has been shipped on the humble wooden pallet. With over 4 billion pallets in circulation, around 200 million of them go to landfill each year. In this workshop, you will get creative with reclaimed pallets, transforming them into everything from beautiful wall art to wine racks and coffee tables!

Involving the creation of intricate pictures and elaborate wooden designs, this highly specialized art has roots in ancient times and was brought to a high level of refinement by master cabinetmakers in France during the 17th century.
