The cost of commissioning a piece of bespoke furniture is rarely cheaper than buying a mass produced item. What you do get when you specify something is precisely what you want and you'll save the time spent looking for and accepting a compromise.

I keep my overheads low with no middlemen, showroom or stock to pay for, ensuring your money goes on craftsmanship and materials, keeping it in the local community and ultimately benefiting everyone.

Customers are as diverse and lovely as the range of Scottish timbers in which I work!

Some know precisely what they want down to the last detail and only want to know what it costs. Generally, though, there is an exchange of ideas and possibilities covering practical function and visual form with financial considerations never far away.

This process takes as long as it needs and culminates in a finished design with its price and timescale for customer approval.

Usually, there's no payment until satisfactory completion, but for large commissions or ones with expensive material costs, a deposit of around 20% will be required.
