Interior ornamentation

The small scale table top piece can also be useful as a private memorial effigy, these cost circa £1,000 and are made by hand by me to order.

Pile of Baskets

Inlaid glass river table

Made by Fabwerx Ltd.

Here we have one of our custom coffee tables.

For the wood we chose a beautiful piece of live edge spalted beech which had been subjected to CFN beetle and kiln dried. This has left it with some beautiful and distinct markings.

Both halves are cut from the same board and have been debarked, cut to size, planed and also inlaid with a toughened glass panel so that you get an infinity view of the live edge.

We have also fabricated the legs using 40mm x 5mm thick flat bar bent into shape, then drilled and threaded with galvanised M16 rod for extra stability and industrial style.

Finally the wood has had a sanding up to 800 grit after planing and given 4 generous coats of double boiled linseed oil.

Saxonburg Lantern

Made by Karl-Josef Schmidt

A reproduction of an original 19th century pierced tin lantern.

Rainbow & Sunshine Lamp

Made by Jayne Woodbridge

This lamp came about purely by accident, a student wanted to make a pumpkin using a balloon, this was just a practice piece to show how it could be done.

I wasn’t sure what design I was going to do and with the current circumstances in the world, rainbows are a sign of hope for many……sunshine or the sun has a general happy feel to it and I have a great love for botany so the flowers just went hand in hand.

This was fired once as I have been experimenting with this technique. It came out ok but there is always room for improvement.
