In pursuit of poetry

We embrace myriad techniques and approaches in our workshop. Yet we all agree that elegantly simple, perfectly functional, and attentively detailed designs are the most physically and aesthetically enduring. When made in natural materials and given time to bear the gentle effects of use, this record of life adds to the poetry of each piece.

Every piece is thoughtfully made for its purpose according to these principles.

The convent cupboard

The torii table

The constant table

The convent cupboard

A bold and capacious oak cupboard inspired by the 18th-century dormitory furniture of the Salem monastery in Germany. The carrying handles allow the cupboards to be stacked or moved to create the required storage configuration.

Made to measure in solid oak and furnished with bespoke forged strap hinges and carrying handles. Can be fitted with any configuration of shelves, pigeon holes and dry-run drawers. Available in our natural, dark greywash, dark fumed, and whitewash finishes.

The torii table

An architectural tiered table inspired by Japanese Torii gates and 18th century English tea trays.

Made in solid timber with hand-turned posts and solid brass feet. The Torii table is available in dark fumed, natural or greywash oak, ebonised douglas fir, and painted maple. 

-

The constant table

A pared-back table informed by centuries-old vernacular and still entirely relevant today. 

Made in prime oak with a generous 2” top on tapering hand-turned legs fixed with through tenons.

We offer four oiled oak finishes for the constant table: natural, dark greywash, dark fume and scrubbed.
