Each door includes three vertically aligned tempered glass panels for durability and light flow, combining sleek style with functionality. Ideal for creating an open, airy feel without sacrificing style.

The customer originally had a 1970s mahogany staircase handrail and balustrade that wasn’t in keeping with their 400-year-old cottage. Using the customer’s own design, I crafted a new handrail and balustrade that better suited the period style of the home, blending traditional craftsmanship with their vision to create a timeless, characterful feature.

The customer’s bothy was damaged by a fallen tree, causing significant harm to the roof, cedar shingles, and supporting pillars. I carried out the repairs using timber cut and milled on the estate from other fallen trees, maintaining the building’s integrity and character. The exterior decorative detailing was carefully reconstructed and replaced to match the original, restoring its former charm with materials sourced entirely on-site.

The customer wanted a custom-built boot room storage solution to suit their active lifestyle. Designed in collaboration with the customer, the unit features a built-in bench with storage underneath for boots, a row of hooks above for coats, and full-height sleeves on either side to neatly store shooting and equestrian gear. The result is a practical, well-organized space tailored to both function and style.

A customer came to me after a family member’s handmade table lost its base. They wanted the tabletop carefully restored and a new base crafted to replace the missing one. I repaired the top to preserve its original character and built a sturdy, complementary base to complete the piece, bringing the table back to life.

The customer designed a Welsh dresser to create the illusion of a straight, seamless wall, cleverly hiding the uneven join between the original kitchen and a new extension. I brought their design to life, custom-building the piece to match the existing kitchen style and finishes, ensuring it blended in perfectly while discreetly correcting the visual imbalance of the space.

Using carefully selected oak and traditional joinery, the base was rebuilt to match the original design. After gentle cleaning and finishing, the coffer’s rich patina and craftsmanship were brought back to life — a timeless piece restored to its former glory.
