Demiurge New York is dedicated to creating beautifully handcrafted furniture and lighting. Each piece is made in New York City by a team of craftsmen and artisans, led by designer Rachel Shorr. Guided by a philosophy of elegance and simplicity, our work embodies a timeless design language and the refined artistry of Atelier Demiurge.



Demiurge New York is a luxury furniture, lighting, and antique company based in New York City.
What began as a family business, Amy Perlin Antiques, has grown to furniture manufacturing and design
regarded as one of the finest in the country, with the brands
Atelier Demiurge and Amy Perlin Antiques.


The Atelier Demiurge Collection and Editions began as an antique and restoration workshop in the late 1990s.
When Rachel Shorr entered the family business in 2010, she brought on Europe’s finest artisan craftsmen
to produce the first collection. Rachel’s designs began to reflect the essence of
traditional early European and 20th-century furniture design.
From the Renaissance to the Baroque and 20th-century designs,
Rachel continues as a distinctive innovator of melding beauty and simplicity in design.
