Traditionally handmade furniture
We integrate expertise and craftsmanship to turn ideas and aspirations into exceptional handmade furniture and accessories. Typically hand select the timber, machining each component until until ready to be assembled. Although we use high-tech, high-accuracy machines, the end result is only possible through the craftsman expertly reading the timber, whether solid wood or high-quality veneer, and applying skills carefully honed through experience.

Our workshop is fully equipped with specialist hand tools that have been collected over the years, including dovetail saws, Japanese saws, chisels, planes and various spokeshaves.
They’re complemented by an array of high-tech machinery such as a digital sander, digital dimension saw and vacuum press.
Whether traditional or cutting edge, all our tools play an equally important role in the making and fine craftsmanship of our handmade furniture.
We are not a production line workshop churning out machine-made copies: we prioritise originality and quality over quantity.
Neil`s designs combined with solid handmade craftsmanship and construction means each piece will age gracefully and endure the rigors of life.

Customer Reviews
Well, where do I begin! This is the most beautifully well made piece of furniture you could ever imagine. Neil went above and beyond to get it right for me with regular updates. The haulier had let him down for the initial delivery, Neil was prepared to put it in his car and bring it to Shropshire from York! I was not in any hurry so it was not necessary. If you are looking for a stunning piece of furniture look no further, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you again Neil.
Excellent media unit. I searched high and low for a modern unit and found this lovely piece of furniture. It was a Christmas gift for my daughter along with a vinyl player. Neil, who designed and made it even delivered it by hand to ensure I got it in time for Christmas. Amazing service.
​
I couldn’t recommend this and Neil more.
Thanks again Neil!
5 out of 5 stars
If I could give Neil 6 stars for this I would. I love this stand... the build quality is exceptional, the finish is spectacular and Neil was fantastic to deal with throughout the whole process.
I live in Seattle so was initially a little hesitant to order from the UK, but Neil’s shipping was fast, and his packaging was extremely careful and secure.
