SOLD OUT! Wow, I think I speak on behalf of Claire of .flwrs and the entire Dowel Jones team that we did not expect to sell all the tables in one day. 8 months ago we first got in contact to talk about this collaboration, and there’s no way we expected for it all happen on one day, so thank you!

We are an Australian design brand producing furniture, lighting and accesories.
Dowel Jones was founded by Adam Lynch and Dale Hardiman in 2014 after graduating from university together. Over the past 6 years, founders Adam Lynch and Dale Hardiman have grown the company from a small furniture studio helping to furnish local cafes, to producing furniture, lighting and accessories now found in homes and interiors all across the world.
In the past 6 years, Dowel Jones have won numerous awards for products both nationally and internationally. Although we appear to be a furniture and lighting company, we also work on self-initiated pieces that explore concepts further in depth (such as a tattooed cabinet called Venena Arca and National Gallery of Victoria aquired bench Never Grow Up), and also regularly organise events to support the local community of designers in Australia.
We work with a large network of Australian and international manufacturers to produce products of as high quality as possible. Where possible, we produce within Australia in local areas to our factory in Geelong: our steel fabrication is in Melbourne, and our timber factory and powder coating takes place around the corner from our Geelong factory.
In 2018 we began collaborating with designers outside the company to provide new visions on what Dowel Jones pieces could be, launching the Sister Collection with New York based 3D artist Tom Hancocks.
In 2018 we furthered the availabilities of Dowel Jones products globally by partnering with well respected family-owned American manufacturer Grand Rapids Chair Company. This allows for select products to be available in the US while being locally made.
