Our workshop is conveniently located in the Ballsbridge area of Dublin, easily accessible by public transport and with parking available for visitors.
We specialize in bespoke furniture pieces, turned objects, and decorative wooden items. Our expertise includes dining tables, chairs, cabinets, display cases, bowls, vessels, and sculptural pieces. We're open to discussing any wood-based project and can advise on feasibility based on your specific requirements.
Our restoration philosophy centers on preserving as much of the original piece as possible while ensuring structural integrity and functionality. We begin with a thorough assessment, document the piece's condition, and develop a restoration plan that respects its historical context. We use period-appropriate techniques and materials whenever possible, while incorporating modern conservation methods where beneficial.
Timeframes vary significantly based on project complexity, current workshop volume, and material availability. Smaller turned items might be completed in 2-3 weeks, while complex furniture pieces can take 2-3 months. During our initial consultation, we'll provide a realistic timeline specific to your project. We believe in setting accurate expectations rather than promising unrealistic delivery dates.
Yes, we offer regular workshops for beginners in both lathe work and basic furniture making. Our introductory classes are designed for those with no prior experience and include all materials and tool use. We also offer intermediate and advanced classes for those looking to develop specific skills. Check our workshop schedule or contact us for upcoming dates and availability.
We work with a wide range of both domestic and exotic hardwoods. Our locally sourced options include Irish oak, ash, and elm. We also work extensively with American black walnut, cherry, and maple, as well as European beech and olive wood. For exotic species, we ensure they come from sustainable sources with proper documentation. We're happy to discuss specific wood choices for your project based on aesthetic preferences and functional requirements.
