Interview with Artisans Life
Before Christmas I was asked by the lovely folk at Artisans Life to be interviewed as the latest maker in their series of conversations with craftspeople. The article has now been published - check out the full interview on their website - link at the bottom.
Where does the timber I use come from?
I’ve fielded a lot of questions over recent months about where the timber I use for my furniture comes from. I decided a while ago that I wanted to support British timber, which as an industry has been neglected and unsupported for many many years. A great deal of my timber now comes from the fantastic guys at Fallen & Felled, who have kindly given me permission to use their images to show the process involved in turning a tree into furniture.

British timbers offer fantastic variety - something for every decor, from pale to dark tones, smooth to open grain. These can be further enhanced with the right finish.
