I am happy to design and make to order around your      
own requirements, dimensions and style.
   Just get in touch. I can email concept sketches.
Of late I have been using mostly American White Oak ..   
 a nice grainy timber that looks good in any stain or       
 left natural. It is suitable for chairs, cabinetrs, beds       
   and vanity units using my natural stone basins.
