Our Story

Nestled just outside Shrewsbury, Shropshire, we are passionate about celebrating the beauty of sustainable British hardwood. As a dedicated live edge hardwood merchant and bespoke furniture maker, we source, kiln-dry, and craft stunning pieces from a variety of native species, including Oak, Elm, Sycamore, Cherry, Walnut, Ash, London Plane, Yew, Beech and Burr variants.

WHO WE ARE

We specialise in supplying high-quality British hardwood slabs and creating handcrafted furniture that showcases the raw elegance of live edge timber. Whether you’re a furniture maker searching for premium slabs or a homeowner looking for a one-of-a-kind piece, we are here to help. Our professional slab levelling service ensures each piece of wood reaches its full potential, making it ready for your next project.

The Origin of Our Wood

All of our hardwood is sourced from sustainably managed British woodlands and sawmills, ensuring responsible forestry practices that support our local ecosystem. We work closely with trusted suppliers who share our values, allowing us to offer a selection of stunning native British species. Each slab tells a story, from the forest it came from to the craftsmanship that transforms it into a timeless piece of furniture.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY ETHOS

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. By exclusively working with British hardwood, we reduce the environmental impact associated with imported timber while supporting responsible woodland management. Every piece we craft is designed to last for generations, embracing the philosophy of ‘buy once, buy well.’ Offcuts and waste materials are repurposed wherever possible, ensuring that nothing goes to waste.
