benches
These stunning curved oak benches are all handcrafted from windblown and weathered oak trees from the National Trust. This natural ageing process creates fantastic character and wonderful colours within the grain. Trunks and branches were either milled onto slabs, cleft into rails or chainsawed into boards onsite, then transported to my workshop to shape, joint and build into what you see below.
