Delusea: Sustainable Furniture Upcycling in Cornwall

Nestled in the heart of Southwest Cornwall, Delusea is more than just a furniture restoration business - we're passionate advocates for sustainable design and creative transformation. Founded by friends Deby and Lucy, our mission is to breathe new life into forgotten furniture, one brushstroke at a time.

Our Story: From Coastal Inspiration to Sustainable Creativity

What started as a shared love for coastal design and environmental consciousness has blossomed into a thriving upcycling studio. We're not just furniture painters - we're sustainability champions who believe every piece of furniture deserves a second chance. Our workshop is where vintage finds are transformed into unique, hand-painted treasures that tell a story.

​

More Than Just Furniture Restoration

We specialize in:

  • Coastal-inspired furniture upcycling

  • Furniture painting workshops in Cornwall

  • Eco-friendly furniture restoration techniques

Our approach combines creativity with environmental responsibility. Each piece we restore is a testament to our commitment to reducing waste and celebrating the beauty of repurposed furniture. From chalk paints to mineral finishes, we use high-quality, eco-friendly materials that ensure your upcycled furniture will be a cherished piece for years to come.

​

Beyond the Workshop

When we're not transforming furniture, you'll find us embracing the wild Cornish coastline - surfing, camping, and drawing inspiration from our stunning surroundings. This connection to our beautiful county infuses every piece we create with authentic coastal charm.
