Wylie & Lochhead (c. 1829 to c.
Founded by cabinetmaker Robert Wylie and upholsterer William Lochhead, the firm built its reputation on high-quality craftsmanship, supplying both bespoke and catalogued furnishings to Scotland’s growing middle class. By the 1890s Wylie & Lochhead employed leading Glasgow Style designers such as Ernest Archibald Taylor, George Logan, and George Walton, producing Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts pieces characterised by elegant proportions, stylised inlay, and finely carved motifs. Working mainly in mahogany, oak, and walnut, the company also offered complete interior schemes, including stained glass, metalwork, and textiles, ensuring cohesive decorative ensembles for domestic and commercial clients. Through international exhibitions and an extensive showroom network, Wylie & Lochhead helped popularise progressive Scottish design. Although the firm’s influence waned after the mid-twentieth century, its furniture remains prized for its refined aesthetic, exemplary craftsmanship, and significant role in the history of Glasgow design.
