Walnut Coffee Table
We had some American black walnut boards in the workshop that were used them to create this custom coffee table, taking inspiration from Axel Vervoordt table design.

The joinery was a challenge, particularly the legs, but it was a joy to make nonetheless. The hard wax oil finish brings out the grain wonderfully.

It is a beautiful piece, our lovely clients were very happy.

A generous pine cupboard with a beauty of an over mantle mirror.

These pieces work well together or apart. The cupboard is large and deep with antiqued brass k***s. The over mantle has its original mirror with a little “foxing”.

Gluing and clamping a cabinet door together.

We don’t rush this stage. It determines whether the door is properly square, flat and later hangs correctly.

It’s about timber choice and joining properly. This is tulipwood and MDF that will become part of a painted piece.

This is a solid pine chest of drawers, with clear pattern across the drawer fronts.

It has an original tack studded band around the top and the whole piece had not been overworked.

It’s been cleaned, the runners and stop have been repaired and it’s been finished with clear wax to keep the true original colour.

Available in our shop if you would like to see it in person.

Still life with corn broom.
They’re natural, as the corn fibers fray they create pockets for collecting dust.
