(02) — The build

Argent

Argent arrived in boxes after forty years in a barn.

Invisible changes

New brakes, a hidden heater and a modern loom sit behind original-looking parts we made to match.

The paint is a single-stage silver, sanded by hand between twelve coats.

“My father would recognise every line of it.”
