From my workshop in the village of Newstead in Central Victoria, Australia, I make one-off pieces of furniture. Often starting with just the wisp of an idea and some special wood, I hope to work thoughtfully & sensitively and do justice to the wood. Furniture with soul.
"Handmade furniture should last for generations. But this doesn't just mean durability. The details of a piece create a rhythm, ensuring it will reveal itself slowly. It will unfold, there will be discoveries that are not immediate." - John Shaw - friend & mentor. - www.johnshawfinewoodworker.co.nz
