Our wood is hand-sanded and hand finished to produce a highly tactile smooth polished finish.

We finish our furniture grade solid oak with an ultra-durable, satin-matte clear lacquer for hardwearing lasting protection for years of use. The clear lacquer preserves the beauty of the natural oak features like medullary rays and subtle fleck. Every unit is unique.

Oak can also be stained. We use industry leading light-fast wood stain for their depth and richness of colour prior to protecting with a clear lacquer.

Please take a look at our Materials & Finishes page for more details.

We only use AB Grade solid European Oak sourced from sustainably managed forests, certified by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).

All our metalwork is made locally to our own design and to a high standard by experienced steel fabricators.

We are committed to constantly reducing our impact on the environment. We use local suppliers where possible. Our short supply chain results in a lower carbon footprint.

Waste products from our manufacturing process such as wood offcuts are made into kindling for locals to take away and our sawdust collected by local farmers.

Care & Clean

The table finish will continue looking like new for years with regular care & cleaning. All our furniture can be properly maintained in a good, clean condition by simply wiping with a soft cloth moistened with tepid water.

The finish we use is formulated for use on surfaces which require a high level of performance and resistance to chemical degradation, primarily from household chemicals such as tea, coffee, red wine, nail varnish remover, perfume. However if the furniture has become "grubby" due to the accumulation of contaminants such as secretions from hands, minor spillages etc, a small amount of mild detergent (less than 1% by volume of washing up liquid) added to the water will ease the cleaning operation. After cleaning, any excess water should be wiped off immediately with a soft dry cloth to leave the coated surface completely dry.

It is not advisable to use wax-containing polishes as they can quickly cause a buildup of wax residues on the lacquer surface which will become embedded with dust and dirt and result in a grubby appearance. These wax residues can also alter the degree of sheen of the lacquer surface, i.e matt finishes can become glossy.

We also recommend that you do not use industrial cleaners which may contain bleaching agents, abrasives and other chemical additives as it is not possible to test every combination of cleanser and lacquered surface. Some detergents can have a detrimental effect on the lacquered surface and cause visible and lasting damage.

Temperature:

The surrounding air temperature plays an important role in relative air humidity. Changes in the temperature can cause the wood to quickly react by expanding/contracting. This movement can cause the wood to move (warp/cup) and new shakes (cracks) to open. This could result in openings at the joints. As a result, furniture should not be placed near strong heat sources such as radiators and wood burners, etc. Likewise, furniture should not be stored in places where the temperature can suddenly change such as outdoors, conservatories, or outhouses etc.

Sun/UV Light: 

Whilst the colour of the wood will mature with age, UV light can also impact the colour. Like many materials, uneven exposure to sunlight could result in colour differences. If your furniture is placed in direct sunlight, you should avoid leaving anything on the surface for extended periods. We recommend regularly moving items stored on the surface to allow even exposure to UV.

Customisations are available for all our furniture. If you love the style but need different dimensions, doors, rounded or square corners, removable shelves, more or fewer cable holes or a different configuration then just get in touch.

We also offer a bespoke furniture service where we can work with you to design your perfect piece.
