Another Friday evening in these torrid times and another small reason to treat ourselves as best we can & to clutch to all the small pleasures we may. We are fortunate that we can still, with the help of strict hygiene, distancing protocols and willing participation, keep designing & making for you. This week's piece is another for our delightful clients in Bath (may they have rose petals strewn before them), those that we are developing a new chair for as I write. Made from English bog oak , rescued & seasoned by the national living treasure Hamish Low. This tree had been lurking in a bog near Peterborough, a victim of global warming & its subsequent flooding & deluge 5300 years ago! The customised rippled ash interiors are made from a victim of a millennial storm, so a mere nanosecond in comparison. They do however make wonderful partners. #supportpeopleinsheds #hymntotheartisans #englishtimber #britishmaking #british design #britishdesignermakers #marchofthemakers #cityofbath #breakonthroughtotheotherside #keepontrucking #thankgoditsfriday #lovenpeace

It's a murky Friday evening in deepest winter but we are lucky to be able to go to work. Yes there's lots of hygiene & distancing protocols but unlike many we can carefully keep making. This English bog oak & rippled ash tambour-fronted bureau was designed & made for wonderful clients in Bath, who continue to come back, with generous frequency, for more. We are making a batch of very exciting dining chairs to accompany their 'Centenary Curved Kitchen Table', delivered just before Christmas, as I write, I'll show you all the results when we deliver. Try to eek the best from these torrid times #keeponinthere #lovenpeace #respecttoallkeyworkers #breakonthroughtotheotherside #supporteachother #nochancedryjanuary

Farewell to 2020 which, as always with adversity, teaches us so much and welcome 2021 which I hope may provide some answers. Happy New Year to all #lovenpeace #breakonthroughto theotherside #keepontruckin

This is the new altar for St John the Baptist in T

This is the new altar for St John the Baptist in Tisbury Wiltshire. A project to design & make this altar is close to my heart. Wondering around the church yard at this ancient church you will find the occasional Burt tucked under the soil. That's not surprising because we've been around there for a few centuries. To be able to add my own mark to the history and narrative of this church is a very special privilege and pleasure to me. The light within this altar is an overt metaphor, its construction in local oak a given. The first two photos were taken by Jon Stone & capture the vibe & essence of this piece. #thankgoditsfriday #hymntotheartisans #supportpeopleinsheds #britishdesinermakers #britishdesin #britishmakers #britishtimber #hangonintheregoodpeople #breakonthroughtotheotherside #artisans #lovenpeace
