Deleted my idea so that I might get to buy it from ebay instead 😉
The Mason is the most obvious match and oh so pretty. More leftfield..

The Shand skinnymalink is lush.
Mr Taylforth's condor resembles a gate. 😉
+1 for Condor.
I have a non-disc Fratello as my winter bike - had it for 3 years now and no desire to ever buy anything else.
Best thing IMO about Condor is you get a free bike fit and get to build up the exact spec you want - so you don't get upgraditis or find things wearing out after a year - so even though initial price isn't cheap the net cost over a few years is way cheaper...
+ you're supporting a properly independent LBS who put money back into the sport sponsoring their race team

I'd go for a different metal and pick titanium. Moots are probably the longest standing artisans. Or seven.
Equilibrium Disc 953
Have seen one. Have want.

I'm a Ti fanboi from BITD (used to have an original Lynskey Litespeed Obed where everything that could be Ti was - Dean Ti post, Titec bar and stem, SX-Ti forks etc etc) so am all about Moots and Seven. Sadly my budget, whilst elastic, might struggle to stretch that far! Comtat have a fantastic build Sartorial as an ex-demo half price (so £4200), but it looks too big for me 🙄
Enjoying the shopping and plenty of ideas. Like the non-disc Skinny malinky and whilst their stock sizes don't work for me (my P+J which is all-day-comfortable has a 55cm ETT, the Shand has 54 or 56) they seem to do custom at no extra cost?

Yes, all Skinnys include custom fit/sizing at no additional cost.
not strictly road but for what its worth i was rather taken with a ritchey swiss cross, canti version, in a bike shop the other day. i had never seen one, it was lovely.

Have you considered a frame building course?
You can end up with a unique frame, built by your self.
and....
"Tom Ritchey said he was really impressed by the way we teach and the results we get. Here he's asking Andrew how he coached David (our student) to produce such a great fillet braze..."
Design and build it yourself could be an option.
