Ebay meets CPHmade!

The month of May turns out to be quite a busy month for us at CPHmade.
As you may recall, we recently launched CPHmade Guided Tours, and we also initiated a FACEBOOK CONTEST to celebrate 600 likes on Facebook.

To make our business even more busy, we just launched a new initiative on the CPHmade blog: CPHmade Monthly Auctions.
We have started off series a monthly auctions where you can grab yourselves a bargain on different kinds of products crafted in Copenhagen.
This month we are offering you the chance of getting a pair of superbly designed bike pedals from the legendary bike manufacturer Søren Sögreni.
The pedals are absolutely ideal for spicing up your bike for the spring season!
Like all products from Sögreni, these bike pedals are crafted by hand in the highest quality possible.
The pedals are crafted from the finest copper and solid steel, which makes this construction extremely durable and basically superior to rust.
With a starting bid as low as 8$, you should stop by our online auction on Ebay, and stay tuned for more Copenhagen produced goods to be auctioned off the forthcoming months.

Our latest project, CPHmade Guided Tours, finally started off yesterday.

For our very first tour, we welcomed guests from France, Belgium, India, Singapore and Rumania. We started off by meeting at Sögreni Bikes on Sankt Peders Stræde. Søren Sögreni welcomed us by giving an introduction to his principles within his craftsmanship, and showed us around in his workshop.

Next we walked to Studiestræde, where we met with Anne-Mette from Schönwerk.
Anne-Mette showed us around in the charming little combined shop/workspace, and answered all kinds of questions from the curious audience.

Last but not least, we walked to Skindergade where we visited Sort Slips Hvidt Slips.
We were welcomed by Victoria, one half of the Sort Slips Hvidt Slips duo, who showed us around in their unique universe of home accessories and eye-catching couture!

We even have more photos from the tour, which are available right here!

All in all a great success, and we are very much looking forward to seeing some of you guys out there!

Our member Sögreni Bikes is really experiencing how spring equals a need for a new bicycle to enjoy the weather in.

Many Copenhageners’ may recognize Sögreni bikes on the cycle paths. The bikes from Sögreni are classic and simple, and only the best materials are used in the process. Sögreni offers a 25-year warranty on the bike frames used in the bike designs, and this particular detail states Sögreni as a bike designer that’s really all about the quality.
The rumour of the recognizable and durable design has spread to a lot of different cities around the world, and now Sögreni Bikes are ready to ship a Sögreni Classic to Stockholm in Sweden, and a Young Shatterhand to Freiburg in Germany.

Is your bike ready for spring?

You have to pay him a visit!

This Sögreni bike is a quiet bicycle, very elegant and modern in its design and without much fuss. The Sögreni Classic is practically a work of art, and this is the Louisiana model (named for the Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark, which chose to exhibit it as an example of the best contemporary Danish design).

This is probably one of the most purchased but never used bicycles in the world.

Check it in Sankt Peders Stræde 30A, Cph K.

Sögreni bikes is in the mind of the Swedish much more than solid craftsmanship. It’s categorized as art! Fortunately you don’t have to go to Sweden to see the range, design thoughts and excellent skills that is put into every bike delivered. Go’ visit Sögreni right here in the heart of Copenhagen.
