Nest Studio
Artist-made luxury hardware, in stock and shipping across Canada.
Nest Studio is a New York design house founded in 2012 by interior designer Jessica Davis. Each collection is solid brass, hand-finished, and drawn from a single point of view: architecture, art, and the natural world translated into hardware you actually use. Banbury Lane carries the line for architects, designers, and builders specifying it across kitchen, bath, and millwork, with most pieces available to order directly online.
The Studio
A designer's line, built from a designer's frustration.
Jessica Davis launched Nest Studio after a search for beautiful hardware for her own interiors projects came up empty. An Art History degree from Princeton and a Master's in Interior Design sit behind the line, and it shows in how the collections are conceived: Bauhaus and Art Deco architecture, Pre-Columbian geometry, the biomorphic forms of Henry Moore, the texture of historic and contemporary art. The hardware is the argument that a cabinet pull can carry as much design intent as anything else in the room.
Every piece is solid brass construction combined with luxurious mixed materials and hand-rubbed finishes. The studio works in two registers: its own signature collections, and a series of groundbreaking artisan collaborations where Nest's foundry translates the work of ceramicists, leatherworkers, fiber artists, and sculptors into functional hardware.
That second register is what makes Nest difficult to shop anywhere but a specifier who knows the line. A Stitch pull is not a leather pull, it is Valeriy Khvan's hand-stitched Italian leather over a Mod base. A Knot is Katie Gong's steam-bent sculpture cast in brass. Knowing which collection answers which project is the value Banbury Lane adds. Browse the collections →

Materials and Finishes
Four material languages.
Nest works across four material families, and coordinating them is part of specifying the line well. Most collections are solid brass in hand-rubbed metal finishes. The artisan collaborations add wood, leather, fiber, and ceramic, each behaving differently over the life of a project.
Metal.
Solid brass in hand-rubbed finishes: Polished Brass Unlacquered, Satin Brass, Polished Nickel, Polished Chrome, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Matte Black, Antique Brass, Blackened Bronze, and Verdigris. Unlacquered finishes are living and will patina as the design intends, not a defect.
Wood and fiber.
White Oak on the Aperture series, oiled and waxed or unfinished. Hand-woven lauhala leaf on the Lauhala collection. Both natural materials that read warm against brass.
Leather.
Italian vegetable-tanned leather on Stitch, hand-applied and hand-stitched, available in brown or natural. A tailored, tactile element for warm interiors.
Ceramic and acrylic.
Hand-thrown ribbed ceramic on Glaze, and exposed-joinery acrylic on Transparency. The two material extremes of the line, both handmade statement pieces.
Custom finishes are available on most collections by request. Banbury Lane can coordinate finish selection across cabinet hardware and the rest of your hardware program in the same conversation.
Lead Times and Made-to-Order
Quick ship and made-to-order.
Most Nest Studio pieces are Quick Ship, sourced per project with delivery to our Calgary location typically 2 to 3 weeks. The artisan collaborations and powder-coat colorways are made to order, with delivery typically 4 to 6 weeks.
Made-to-order pieces carry a one-time setup fee of $420 CAD per order, not per piece, handled by our team after you order. Where this applies, it is stated clearly on the product page before you purchase. Nothing is added at checkout.
Specifying Through Banbury Lane
What working with us looks like.
In stock and online.
Unlike most of the architectural lines we carry, the majority of Nest Studio is available to order directly through the site. Specifiers who already know the piece they want can order without a quote. Where a collection is made to order, the lead time and any setup fee are disclosed on the product page.
Knowing the line.
Nest's depth is in its collaborations, and matching the right artisan collection to a project is where a specifier earns their keep. We carry the full range and can talk through which collection answers the room: the sculptural statement, the tailored leather, the quiet workhorse.
Finish coordination.
Nest's living finishes shift over the life of a project, and its four material families behave differently. We help coordinate finish and material decisions across the cabinetry program and the rest of the home in one conversation.
Trade account access.
Approved trade accounts access trade pricing, sample support, and project coordination across the full Banbury Lane catalog, not only Nest Studio. Trade applications are reviewed manually.
