WOOD TYPES & LEATHER for desks & bookcases
We use only the best quality wood and varnish.
Each sheet of wood is hand-selected to ensure consistent colour and pattern.
Our bespoke English desks and bookcases are made from a combination of solid wood and veneers.
We have more than 30 years of experience, so we know how to prevent problems before they occur.
Our wood does not crack, bend or warp.
If you need a specific colour, all we need is a sample of your wood and we can match the colour.
We can also give your English desk or bookcase any colour you want.
You can choose an RAL colour or a specific colour from a manufacturer.
Farrow and Ball, for example, has great colours in their catalogue.
There are many different types of wood available.

Painted and coloured wood ( RAL colours)
If you have a specific colour in mind, that's no problem at all. We can supply your furniture in almost any colour. Most colours have a code or identification number.
( RAL number )
If you mention that then we can usually produce your furniture in that colour.
Besides a RAL colour, you can also choose a special colour from any paint supplier.
Farrow and Ball, for example, produces some very interesting and attractive colours and shades.
To give you some ideas, you can visit our Portfolio page. There you will see many examples of our painted English desks and custom-made bookcases.






LEATHER FOR YOUR ENGLISH DESK
We use specially selected cow hides ( called skivers), each of which is hand-dyed to ensure a long-lasting and quintessentially English product.
We offer a choice of green, red, brown, black, tan and blue leather.
The gilding and embossing is done by hand the old-fashioned way.
The leather is antiqued to give it a beautiful patena
