There are very few things as timelessly imaginative and universally appealing as Alice in Wonderland.

Even to those rarest of species, the uninitiated into the classic Lewis Carroll novel, everyone know an Alice reference.

From the March Hare to the Mad Hatter it’s imagery has permeated the imagination of everyone.

So what’s more comforting, reassuring and homely than our handmade nightlight?

Made from original vintage artwork from salvaged classic books and reclaimed timber, we set the characters and scenery in a 3D world by setting them at different perspectives.

And we surrounded it with the gentle twinkling glow of some LED lights.

Why settle for the plain and mundane when you can have bright colours, vibrancy and pizazz?

By airbrushing this pine chair in dazzling pinks and purples and literally splashing it with flecks of gold, we’ve made chair a real statement piece.

No longer consigned to the kitchen table we’ve set this chair free to roam any office, study, or bedroom to bring the style, confidence and boldness of punk rock into any space that needs colour and energy.

Made from reclaimed timber and fitted with gently twinkling led lights, we love this piece.

Invoking feelings of nature and the smell of pine trees, this is a lovely homage to Mother Nature herself.

When working with reclaimed and salvaged materials it’s important to have a keen eye. Not all wood is made equal.

With this custom made piece we selected from a variety of of different types of wood…and from a lot of unlikely sources.

This piece was made from a mixture of timber sourced from a lot of different places. Notice the partially faded panel with ‘Guinness’ on it from a vintage crate.

The combination and contrast of wood combines to makes one cohesive piece.

Properly treated timber that’s been cut, planed, sanded, oiled, waxed and polished has a unique feel that’s both homely and contemporary.

It’s always surprising how wood will react to the introduction of certain oils.

Depending on the wood, its age, the finish and the oil being used, no one can ever be really sure how it will look until it’s done.

But the results are always satisfying.

This rare vintage rosewood is no exception. By sanding the old, dated varnish and adding a slow curing tung oil it’s taken on a remarkable hue that will only deepen and become richer in time.

Pallet wood or old whisky crates reimagined as coat racks make a great accent piece for any entryway.

Providing the materials are robust and carefully treated, salvaged wood provides limitless possibilities when making rustic furniture and furnishings.

A deeply satisfying part of our work is working with some truly amazing timber.

This piece of rosewood looks magnificent once the old varnish has been sanded. Can’t wait to apply some tung oil to enhance the grain 😍

When we found a large batch of window frame timber being ripped out and thrown away we had to go dumpster diving to find out more.

To our delight and amazement it was really rare vintage Brazilian mahogany. It’s increasingly difficult to buy this timber nowadays due to it being overharversted.

So, when we were approached to make a custom sized pigeon hole shelving unit we had to use this amazing timber.

We planed, sanded, stained, oiled, waxed and polished the mahogany and assembled it into a really functional and stylish piece of furniture that has a beautiful warm vintage feel with tons of character. We love this piece 😍
