Timber, clay, leather and found materials selected for tactile quality, provenance and how they respond to the hand.
A maker who turns raw material into objects with character: timber, joinery, hand tools, measured lines and the warm evidence of the workshop.
I treat craft as both discipline and visual language: honest materials, visible decisions and objects designed to become more interesting with age.
"I leave enough of the hand in the object for you to feel how it was made."
Timber, clay, leather and found materials selected for tactile quality, provenance and how they respond to the hand.
Measured joinery and careful finishing create structure while small human variations keep each piece alive.
Repair, restoration and low-waste making sit alongside new commissions.
Instead of generic percentage bars, expertise is shown as a vocabulary of techniques and material instincts.
Mortise & tenon, dovetails, scarf joints and clean structural connections.
Carving, turning, sanding and controlled hand-tool work that follows the material.
Oil, wax, burnishing and layered surface treatments that let texture remain visible.
Thoughtful repair that preserves patina, proportion and the story already inside an object.
A compact showcase of commissions, studio experiments and restoration work, each framed by material, technique and the reason it needed to exist.
A sculpted lounge chair built around a quiet joint vocabulary, hand-shaped arms and a low-sheen oil finish that keeps the walnut grain luminous.
Stabilized a century-old tabletop while retaining tool marks and age-darkened edges.
A series of turned forms exploring how one board changes character across the cut.
The process is deliberately visible. Clients see the thinking, tests and material decisions that shape the final object.
Understand the use, space, material preference and emotional reason behind the commission.
Sketch, measure and prototype. The first cuts happen only after proportion and construction are understood.
Shape, join, refine and finish with the hand remaining present in the final surface.
