'Lucy's Bench' named after the inimitable jewel of

'Lucy's Bench' named after the inimitable jewel of a woman who asked me to design her a special seat for her special place in her garden. Made by a master maker in our Wiltshire Workshops, Daniel Church. Tragically Dan was killed in a road accident very recently and his absence is rawly felt in our workshop. We've known Dan, man & boy. He started his apprenticeship with us, twenty years ago, straight from school & we witnessed him evolve into a wonderful family man & a hugely talented, intuitive master maker. He resonates in our workshop & will continue to do so. His sound approach, lives on in his working colleagues, who salute him. They carry him with them in the skills he passed on to them, he was like family to us all #hymntotheartisans #supportpeopleinsheds #makersandmaking #furnituremaking

Few things in life give one more pleasure in the S

Few things in life give one more pleasure in the Spring than laying in next seasons logs. These are mainly ash gleaned from the devastating loss, through 'sudden dieback', of most of our ash. This fungal disease is ripping through our part of Wiltshire. Sadly most are being chipped to feed a Drax power station. I have managed to buy a few butts which we'll plank, season & turn into, hopefully, achingly beautiful 21st century English furniture. The better news is that the red blossomed horse chestnut seems a little less prone to the fungal attack that's causing so many horse chestnut's to have nasty leaf blotch & premature discolouration. We need to cherish, nourish & look after our trees and ... plant...plant..plant for our children & beyond #happyspring #lovenpeace #supportpeopleinsheds #planttrees #biologicalbeingsinabiologicalworld

A few 'blasts from the past' three pieces I design

A few 'blasts from the past' three pieces I designed a while back & all made at our old Albany Workshops based in my Wiltshire garden. One 30 years ago one twenty five years ago & one fifteen years ago. I'll leave you to guess which was when #lovenpeace is all I can cope with this week. A heartfelt thanks to all those that have been & are on the making journey in our workshops #onwardsupwardsandbeyond #hymntotheartisans #supportpeopleinsheds

Conversational, sociable seats, looking in or look

Conversational, sociable seats, looking in or looking out, a space to right the wrongs of the world, to set the record straight, to expostulate that life changing theory or merely mull over the day, stare out to sea or just be #sociableseating #outdoorbenches #sittingoutside #sittingsociably #springissprung #plantedcommunity #hymntothetrisan #supportpeopleinsheds #visithindon #visitwiltshire #matthewburtstudio #lovenpeace

Get into the swing of things this Spring with a swinging love seat , shown here with a frame but can easily be suspended from a bower, verandah, colonnade, cantilevered cannon, beam, branch or ..... limited only by our imaginations. The advantage of the free standing frame are the side shelves for accompanying necessities #swingingseats #gardenseats #outdoorseats #romanticbenches #springissprung #supportpeopleinsheds #hymntotheartisans #lovenpeace
