A rustic timber table and stools on a balcony above a wooded valley

Made to order · 4–6 weeks

Solid oak, joined by hand

Nothing here is in stock, and that is the point: every piece is cut for the room it is going into, in timber you chose, by the two people who will deliver it.

Curved strips of bent timber, lit warm and close

The basics

How we work

Every dimension, before you ask

Width, depth, height, weight and seat height on every page, in centimetres and kilos. If it will not go up your stairs we would both rather know now.

Joints, not fastenings

Mortise and tenon, dovetails and wedges. There is no bolt holding any of this together, which is why the guarantee on the joints runs to ten years.

Two people, into the room

Delivered by the two people who made it, carried to the room it is for, assembled, and the blankets taken away again.

How an order is made

01

Choose the finish

Oak, walnut or blackened oak. Samples are free and take two days.

02

We cut

Boards are chosen for the piece and left a fortnight in the workshop to settle.

03

We join

Cut, fitted, glued and oiled by hand. This is the part that takes the weeks.

04

We deliver

Two people, into the room, assembled. We take the packaging away.

The workshop

Four benches, and nothing on a shelf

We do not hold stock. A piece is cut when it is ordered, from boards chosen for it, which is slower and is the only way to let someone pick a timber and a size and still get a joint that fits.

  • Every joint cut and fitted by hand
  • Timber from managed European forests, with the mill named on request
  • Ten years on the joints, for as long as you own it
A workshop pegboard hung with chisels, clamps and saws
