British-made Bespoke Furniture
All our furniture is not only made to order, its made to your order, so will always be tailored to your available space and to match its surroundings. Bespoke can mean all the following:
An exact copy of what you have seen on display, on-line or in our catalogue (same size, same finish, same shade, same fabric etc) but still made to order specifically for you.
Similar to one you have seen but with a few tweaks to suit your individual requirements (e.g. a bit longer, different handles, thicker table tops, darker staining, more distressing, slimmer drawers, etc.)
A one-off piece we design (or you design yourselves) to full-fill a particular need or fill a particular space in your home. Perhaps it needs to match some existing pieces (in shade or in dimensions) or even have some bespoke carving or fittings? Or perhaps it has a specific purpose, such as storage for TV / Hi-fi equipment or a collection of some sort?
A complete room scheme or project - for example, we have designed and supplied complete kitchens, studies and bedrooms to customers specific requirements, assisting all the way from ideas and design through to installation.
Our furniture is hand crafted in mainly solid oak or cherry using a mixture of traditional and contemporary methods. Each step, from the selection of the timber to the hand-finished polishing, is carried out with the highest degree of craftsmanship. This means that it is made to last for the next generation and beyond.
We have a wide range and variety of fabrics for you to choose from for our sofas and upholstered chairs, including ranges from the likes of Linwood and Jim Dickens, or alternatively you can provide you own fabric.
