PALECEK

Family-owned and operated for over 45 years, PALECEK was founded by Allan Palecek and is still led today by his son Andrew. Headquartered in Northern California, the brand draws inspiration from nature and a global network of artisans. With collections that span lighting, furniture, and accessories, PALECEK blends earthy textures with elevated forms—crafted for both residential sanctuaries and luxury hospitality projects.

PALECEK’s legacy is built on the philosophy that design should honour materials and their makers. Every piece tells a story of place, craft, and quiet elegance.

A Legacy of Purpose

PALECEK is grounded in the belief that great design starts with authenticity. With a passion for organic forms and artisanal methods, the brand focuses on natural materials, coastal-inspired palettes, and tactile finishes that connect people to place.

Sustainability isn’t a trend at PALECEK—it’s foundational. From responsibly sourced hardwoods and renewable fibres to low-VOC finishes and handwoven seagrass, each collection reflects a commitment to ethical materials and long-term environmental impact.

As a multigenerational family business, PALECEK celebrates continuity and connection. Their enduring values—respect for tradition, love of craftsmanship, and loyalty to artisans—mirror our own ethos at Valley & Laurel. Together, we bring a deeply personal, human touch to every project.

Customisation & COM

With a deep appreciation for design individuality, PALECEK offers extensive customisation options across its collections. Designers can choose from over 80 in-stock finishes and fabrics, or apply their own materials through PALECEK’s COM (Customer’s Own Material) program. This flexibility allows for pieces to be tailored in scale, texture, and tone—ideal for both residential and commercial projects seeking something truly personal.

Whether it's refining upholstery details or selecting custom finishes, the Valley & Laurel team is here to guide you through the process—ensuring each piece is a perfect fit for your vision.
