One-off storage
The Memory Chest
Reclaimed timber, useful storage and enough character to become part of the room.
Made slowly. Made to matter.
Useful things,
thoughtfully made from wood.
One-offs, small runs and personal commissions made in a small workshop, often giving reclaimed timber a new story instead of sending it quietly to waste.
- Handmade in the UK
- One-offs and small runs
- Friendly, honest service

Workshop note
The small marks are not faults. They are the part that proves this piece has lived before.

No production-line rush and no pretending handmade means careless.
04Care afterwards
Clear guidance and a real person if you need help after delivery.
From the workbench
Pieces with a little more life in them.
Each design can begin with a practical need, an unusual piece of timber, or the simple thought that ordinary objects deserve more care.

On the bench

Workshop journal
Welcome to the workshop journal
Why this journal will focus on useful making notes rather than filler.
Reclaimed, not disguised
The timber does not need to be perfect. It needs a story worth continuing.
Reclaimed wood is used where it genuinely suits the piece - not as a fashionable label. Old fixings, dents and colour variation are assessed carefully, stabilised where needed and allowed to remain when they add honest character.

Bring the rough idea.
We will work out the useful details together.
You do not need a technical drawing or a perfect brief. A measurement, a photograph, a problem to solve or even “I cannot find this anywhere” is enough to begin.
- 1Tell me what you need
Share the purpose, size, style and anything the design must work around.
- 2Shape the design
We clarify materials, dimensions, practical details and a transparent estimate.
- 3Follow the build
For suitable commissions, progress notes make the process feel personal rather than mysterious.
