A couple of weeks ago we showed you some progress shots from our workshop of the large bespoke wardrobe that we were building for clients with an old character cottage. This job presented particular problems to resolve because the floors, walls and ceilings in period properties are never straight, square or level. Lovely if you live there, but more …
Bespoke ash bedroom furniture
We’re happy to say that this recently finished commission was for another repeat customer who asked us back again to design and build some bespoke furniture that was perfect for their particular needs, up in Milton Keynes. They required a single bed and frame, with a cabinet to match. The bedroom cabinet measures 1200mm long …
Blanket box – and not just for blankets

This particular box features panelled sides front and back in 18mm MDF with a bevelled edge detail to match in with existing furniture. The top is braced in solid Maple with a beveled edge detail.

Exciting times ahead
Our brand new website will be up and running soon, with galleries of our work to browse through, and much more information about our work and what we do. In the meantime, here is me, Mark, in the workshop, checking on the fit and finish of a single bed that we have recently completed for a client. Contact us here …
We don’t make just large objects from wood
It’s not all about kitchens, bedrooms and larger pieces of furniture. We can also make smaller pieces, and this full length mirror is an example of what else we can do. Fine flower detail, bevelled corners and inlays require attention to detail, and we always pay plenty of that. See the other smaller objects that we make in our gallery …
Beautiful bespoke bedroom furniture – finished and photographed!
Some time ago we completed the fitting of the bedroom bedside cabinets and wardrobe that we designed and built on commission for a client, and then last week we returned to take some decent photos of our work. We were really pleased to see what a beautiful bedroom our client has created around our furniture, with feature wallpaper, clever lighting, …
Bed in walnut
This is a bed we were commissioned to make a couple of years ago, and we still think it looks great today – made in walnut, a prized cabinetmaking wood which is strong and beautiful at the same time. If you’d like us to make you something similar and just as individual for your bedroom, please contact us here.
Love your shoes
Shoes don’t really get looked after well by most of us – come in through the door, kick them off, and they’re likely to end up in some dusty corner, or disappear underneath an even dustier sofa. We think shoes should be treated better, and so when we build and design our wardrobes, we always try and incorporate some intelligent …
Want to see some etchings?
This is another shot taken in detail from the set that we did of the finished oak wardrobes for a client in Essex. The client was very clear about what sort of glass he wanted on the wardrobes, and what kind of pattern. We drew an idea in CAD, which the client liked, then had the design sand etched onto …
Work in progress – bespoke fitted bedroom wardrobes
More works in progress in our workshop. These are fitted wardrobes, made to measure for a client’s bedroom. The interiors are made in lacquered oak, and the exteriors are painted white. The doors and side parts are made of a frame and panel construction with a bead detail (see the photo above), and all the painted components are constructed …
