Furniture for Sale

This page displays items of furniture for sale and woodwork that I’ve designed and made for recent exhibitions and currently available to purchase either from my home studio/workshop or from high quality art and craft galleries. I also produce bespoke pieces to commission and the items shown below can be made to order in different sizes and timbers to suit your personal requirements. Page updated on 13/12/22.

These are contemporary pieces of furniture with decorative and incredibly strong hand cut dovetail joints – sculptural designs that highlight the natural beauty of wood grain. ‘Dove-tables’ (a name that I have given to the general table design) can be used as coffee tables or placed at the side of armchairs and used as side tables. Taller versions are available as console tables for the hallway or writing desks for the study or office – with or without drawers or shelves. They are designed to be timeless, sustainable and user friendly pieces of furniture made to last and look good for many generations to come.
