Furniture with Memorymade to matter
This oak witnessed 127 seasons before becoming this office centrepiece. Every piece we create carries the complete story of its origin - documented, preserved, honoured.
In our Yorkshire workshop, traditional hand-crafting meets uncompromising attention to detail. No shortcuts. No concessions. Just generations of expertise applied to each extraordinary piece.
Now it lives on as the centrepiece of a family office, gathering new stories around its ancient rings.
Unlike mass-produced furniture or even other custom woodworkers, we offer complete provenance transparency. Every grain line holds decades of weather and growth. Every piece comes with GPS coordinates, tree photography, and a detailed card of origin.
Our Yorkshire workshop follows traditions passed down through generations, enhanced by obsessive attention to natural beauty. Week-long hand-sanding creates a glass-like finish. Live edges preserve the wood's character. Each piece receives our lifetime refurbishment guarantee.
When you commission a piece from us, you don't just buy furniture. You become the next guardian of a story that began long before any of us were born, built to outlast its maker and last for generations.

Yorkshire Heritage, Modern Conscience
Trained under a master craftsman with over 60 years of experience, I represent a new generation of conscious makers - where traditional Yorkshire craftsmanship meets complete sustainability transparency.
Britain's forests provide our sustainably sourced timber, documented from exact GPS location to final finish. Every surface receives individual attention until it feels like silk and the grain appears to glow from within.
Yorkshire Workshop
Where hand meets wood
Rooted in traditional Northern England craftsmanship, I believe that furniture should be made the way it was made for centuries - slowly, carefully, and entirely by hand.
- ✓Complete Wood Provenance.The only furniture maker providing exact tree location, photographs, and complete history with every piece. GPS coordinates, growth analysis, and harvest documentation included.
- ✓Obsessive Finishing Process.Extended hand-sanding creates a glass-like natural finish unmatched in the industry. Seven progressive stages from 80-grit to glass-smooth perfection.
- ✓Lifetime Refurbishment Guarantee.Chopping boards and tabletops restored to original condition as long as sufficient wood remains. Built to last generations, backed by craftsmanship guarantee.
Most furniture is made quickly. Mine is crafted with patience. The difference shows in every grain line, every joint, every surface that will improve with age.
