Officer's Field Set

The Officer’s Field Set was designed and made by Richard Wrightman Design as a special collaboration with Ghurka, the American leather goods company, to commemorate their 40th anniversary in 2015.

The O.F.S. debuted at Fortnum and Mason in London and coincided with the 200th anniversary of the Gurkha soldiers’ service to the British Crown.  Three sets were made with one presented to Prince Charles in honor of his long association with the Royal Gurkha Riles as Colonel-in-Chief including patron of the Gurkha Welfare Trust. 

The design brief was to produce two folding chairs and a table small enough two fit into the boot of a grand tourer. We took it a step further by creating a trunk to hold the chairs which could also be used as a table. Whether it’s a weekend in the countryside or G&Ts at the bottom of the garden, the Officer’s Field Set is ready for your invitation to any excursion. 

The O.F.S. contains a leather clad trunk lined with fabric, two folding field chairs topped off with a whip-stitched field blanket by Abraham Moon & Sons, leather cushions and a magnificent field umbrella by Francesco Maglia Milano.  As with everything we do, each Officer’s Field Set is made to order in the leather, fabric, wood and hardware of your choice.
