Handmade in Shropshire
Furniture made slowly, to be used for a lifetime.
Chairs, tables and cabinets cut, jointed and finished by hand in our barn workshop — from oak, ash, walnut and cherry grown within a hundred miles.

Pieces we make again and again
Where the time goes
64 hours in every chair.
We keep a log for every piece. Most of the time is joinery — the part no one sees, and the reason it won't wobble in fifty years.
Our timber
Four woods, all local
English oak
Strong, honest, silvers with age
Walnut
Dark, rich, from fallen trees
Ash
Pale and springy — best for chairs
Cherry
Warms to red in the first year
Twelve chairs around a table my grandfather would have recognised. The children climb on them. Nothing creaks.— Dining set commission, Herefordshire
