The programme
Three pieces in stock, the rest to your room.
Three of our most-asked-for pieces are below — built in batches, available with a six- to nine-week lead time. Anything else, we make to your specification, in conversation with you.
Crosses, benches, beds with concealed anchors, wall-mounted racks that read as coat rails. Mild steel as standard; medical-grade stainless steel, brass and oak available on request.

Materials & finish
Built to last, finished to fit.
Every piece in this programme starts as a steel skeleton. We weld in our UK workshop using either mild steel (the standard) or medical-grade stainless steel (a £150–£300 upgrade depending on the piece). All hardware is solid; nothing on the structure is plated.
Powder-coated finishes are applied in our partner shop in Leeds — the matte black is our standard, but we routinely deliver in colours from oxblood to battleship grey. Custom colours add 1–2 weeks to lead time.
Where leather appears (cuff loops, headrests on the bench), it is full-grain English bridle, hand-stitched in Halifax.

Frequently — Asked
The detail bits- How long does a custom commission take?
- Six to nine weeks from order confirmation, fabricated in our UK workshop. We send progress photographs at the halfway point.
- Is delivery included?
- Yes — two-person delivery and assembly is included on all UK mainland orders. International shipping is by quote.
- What materials do you use?
- Mild steel as standard, with a powder-coated matte black finish. 316L medical-grade stainless steel is available as an upgrade. Leather elements are full-grain English bridle, hand-stitched.
- Can I specify a custom colour?
- Yes — anything from oxblood to battleship grey. Custom colours add 1–2 weeks to lead time.
- What working load do your pieces support?
- 200kg minimum across the standard range. Heavier-duty commissions are quoted on request.
- Is the furniture discreet?
- Many of our commissions are designed to read as ordinary furniture — wall-mounted brackets that look like coat rails, storage benches at the foot of beds. Tell us what level of discretion you need and we design accordingly.
- How is the furniture guaranteed?
- Ten years on the structure, lifetime on welded joints. We repair or replace in-scope failures.
- Can you ship outside the UK?
- Yes, by quote. Lead time adds 1–2 weeks for crating and customs paperwork.
Furniture made by hand is built into a relationship, not into a brief.
