A first look at our Uma coffee table, one of the four pieces we’ll be presenting this week at Material Conversations, our exhibition for London Craft Week in collaboration with .

Creating these new pieces has pushed our work in new directions, and we’re very proud to finally be sharing them.

The exhibition opens tomorrow at the Britannicus Stone showroom in Chelsea and will be running throughout the week. Full details can be found via the link in our bio — we’d love to see some of you there.

For London Craft Week, we’re excited to be presenting Material Conversations — an exhibition of new work in British stone and wood, in partnership with .

The project grew out of a shared interest in celebrating the beauty of British raw materials, as well as a long-time desire to bring stone into our work. These new pieces are the result of more than a year of gradual development behind the scenes, pushing our work in new directions and exploring how British wood and stone can come together as a unified form.

The series brings together British timber alongside four native stone varieties sourced from across the UK. Each piece has been shaped by the materials themselves and the relationship between them, with a sense of movement, irregularity and balance inspired by the natural world.

This will be the first time we’ve properly shared our work in person, so we’re very much looking forward to people being able to see the pieces up close rather than through a screen.

The exhibition will be on view at the Britannicus Stone Showroom in Chelsea from 11–17 May. We’ll be there throughout the week and would love to see some of you there!

Some work-in-progress shots of the bar we’ve been making in collaboration with Spink
architects, for a pub which is due to open this Spring.

1–3: Finishing the oak panels for the bar’s cladding. This was a multi-step process — starting
with a wash of black tea 🫖, followed by an ebonising solution made from steel wool and
vinegar, which reacts with the tannins in the wood to darken it. We then used a fine brush to get
into all the cracks and knots, before finishing with a coat of oil.

4–5: Antonio, our new workshop neighbour, upholstering the bar’s soffit with some beautiful
leather hides.

6. A peek at the bar during installation, almost ready for its stone top.

We’ve been busy since the start of the year working on the bar and tables for a new gastro pub in the Chilterns, alongside some great makers we’ve been lucky to have working with us.

Here are a few snapshots of the tables coming together in the workshop, all made from solid English oak:

1–4: Charles joining one of the bar tabletops to the legs with wedged tenons

5: A tabletop freshly textured with a travisher, ready for staining and oiling

6: Ollie shaping a chunky cylindrical table leg for a large dining table

7: One of the dining table bases ready to be joined to the top

The tables are nearly finished now and almost ready to install - very excited to see them in situ.

A nice bespoke project we worked on recently in collaboration with .

The pieces bring together a planter and a light in one — with a compartment for a plant to sit in, illuminated by a light box above with linen panelling.

Made from solid oak, with carved texturing.

A closer look at the base of our Altor Dining Table.

With this piece, we wanted to step outside our usual approach to furniture design and explore a more sculptural form. The base draws inspiration from nature and was designed to sit in dialogue with the fossil-rich limestone top.

One of the biggest challenges was creating a form that captured the irregular, flowing character of natural forms, moving beyond the familiar territory of symmetry, while still building the piece through joinery rather than carving it from a single block. The concept for the base began with two simple cones, made by laminating and joining timber staves cut at precise angles. With one cone inverted, the two were then joined and carefully shaped into the flowing, asymmetrical curves that define the piece — a form that shifts as you move around it.

Our latest design, the Altor Dining Table, brings together a top made from limestone quarried in Yorkshire by , formed over 350 million years ago and patterned with crinoidal fossils, and an asymmetrical, sculptural base made from a fallen oak tree.

We designed the base so it would echo the fossil patterns in the stone, letting the two elements feel connected and in conversation. Figuring out how the base would support the 200kg stone top, while keeping it light and balanced, was a big challenge — so much so that we called in the expertise of structural engineers to help us fine-tune the design and ensure the base could carry the top without compromising the form.

Given the weight of the top, we wanted to avoid moving it across the country as much as possible, so it wasn’t until the photoshoot in London that we finally saw the base and top together — which made for quite a hair-raising build-up. Seeing it come together as planned was hugely rewarding — and somehow it even looked better in real life than we’d imagined.

If you’re passing through Chelsea, you can find the table on display in the Britannicus Stone showroom, and check out their range of beautiful British stone varieties while you’re there.

We’re thrilled to finally share the Altor Dining Table, one of the most ambitious pieces we’ve made so far. Combining wood and stone, it gave us the chance to explore new materials and ways of working, and to push the boundaries of our design and craftsmanship.

The top is made from limestone from Yorkshire, patterned with crinoidal fossils from an ancient marine bed and formed over 350 million years ago. The base is made from an oak tree that fell in a friend’s garden in Devon, shaped into flowing, asymmetrical curves.

We’ve always loved working with wood and exploring the many different timber species the UK has to offer, but we were keen to experiment with new materials, and introducing stone into our work felt like a natural next step. This led us to , a company with deep expertise in sourcing and quarrying British stone, and a commitment to championing it as an alternative to imported marble. Working with them opened our eyes to the incredible range of materials available in the UK. Among the many options, Swaledale Fossil captured our imagination and became the starting point for this piece.

When it came to designing the table, we wanted the base and top to speak to each other, with a form that echoed the fossil-rich patterns of the stone. Alongside working with a new material, we pushed ourselves beyond our usual boundaries of craftsmanship, exploring a more sculptural, asymmetrical language than we’d attempted before. The weight of the limestone meant everything had to be carefully thought through — proportions, structure, and how the form could support the top without ever feeling heavy.

We’re delighted with how the piece has come together, and excited that the project has opened up a new direction in our work. The Altor Dining Table is the first piece we’re sharing from a new series combining wood and stone, with several other pieces being developed in parallel. It’s now in Britannicus’ showroom in Chelsea, and during this May we’ll be showcasing it alongside the rest of the series.

More photos coming soon.

Here’s a photo of us looking extra happy in the workshop, to mark the beginning of what is set to be a very exciting year.

Over the next five months, we’ll be bringing to life a series of new pieces combining British wood and stone, culminating in a showcase during , in collaboration with . We’ll also be collaborating with the architects at SPINK on an ambitious new commercial project, creating a series of free-standing and fitted pieces for a beautiful new space they are designing — our biggest project to date.

Lots to look forward to!

We’ve been working on something new — a dining table with a sculptural base, made from oak from some friends’ garden in Devon, and a top made from some beautiful stone from Yorkshire. Here are a few photos from the making.

This has been our most technically challenging project yet, and it’s taken over a year to bring it to fruition, so it's been very satisfying to put the finishing touches on the table over the last few weeks and finally unite the base with the tabletop.

Photos to come soon.
