A very nice commission by @comotreasury for a spec

A very nice commission by @comotreasury for a spectacular banquette table for their private dining room. We were able to source and use an incredible single Jarrah slab to span the entire 6.0m top. There was a specific requiremnet in the design that the table can be broken down to allow for a more flexible seating arrangement and to accommodate different numbers of guests. The finish is our signature ebonised Jarrah but the edge has been scorched and scrubbed adding a subtle textural element. Thanks to @kha.studios for the design collaboration.

I never thought I'd need to add an extension to our 5.0m @festool track. But for this gigantic 6.2m Jarrah slab, I did. Check the centre cut. No tension at all. That's what 20+ years of air drying will get you. Nice relaxed timber. This is the top of a large table we are making for @comotreasury. Nice working with @kha.studios on this one.

Thanks to @design_institute_au for inviting me to participate in this exhibition along side @philip_noakes @forlano_design @kura_studio @benjaminkontoullas. Thanks also to @wamuseum and @perthdesignweek for hosting. This exhibition focuses on the concept creation and making of an object rather than the finished object its self. I'm focusing on the Hippo bench as it's a nice combination of digital production and traditional furniture making techniques. Open now until 27th March at WA Museum Boola Bardip.

Super Chunk coffee table. A custom piece created using extra thick European Oak for a client in Quindalup, Western Australia. European Oak is a premium timber without any of the issues we're currently seeing with American White Oak. Greatful when I client is prepared to pay a little extra for something a bit special.

There is a huge global demand for American White Oak at the moment, so it's getting very expensive and more defects seem to be making their way into our stock. We are extra fussy with timber selection, especially in our table tops and we are rejecting more pieces than ever to maintain a high standard. Is anyone else experiencing this with White Oak? How are you managing it and are you considering other timber options? This was our first Froxfield table for the year for @loamaustralia. This Oak had a beautiful chatoyancy in the grain. A great result, achieved through very careful timber selection.

Loving this new curved bevel. What do you think? We tried this for the first time on a Jarrah desk last year and now on a custom Oak Dining table.

2024 has been a cracking year.

The amount of work that finds its way to our small, independent workshop is absolutely mind blowing. We got to work with so many talented individuals and design offices across Australia this year and I am extremely grateful that you trust us enough to recommend us to your clients. The positive feedback has been overwhelming and personal referrals have become the lifeblood of the workshop. It means we can concentrate on designing and building exceptional furniture. 2025 is already shaping up to be a great year. Our first 4 months are full of exciting projects. Large and small. Until next year. 👋

Giacci tables in Ancient Ebonised Jarrah.
This strange thing keeps happening where pieces are being ordered in 2's. This table was originally designed 7 years ago. We haven't made one since. Then in the space of a week, I get 2 enquiries and both confirm the same finish. Ebonised Jarrah. Completely unrelated (As far as I know) Just a nice coincidence.

Details from a custom desk we just finished. Curly Jarrah with Jarrah burl highlights. A very traditional combination of materials in Western Australia and one I haven't used since my apprenticeship. I'll admit my heart fluttered a little when I saw it assembled for the first time. It's what got me excited about woodworking to begin with.

We pay our respect to these beautiful slabs of ancient Jarrah, by crafting pieces that will be used and loved for generations. It takes a keen eye and much skill to transform this rustic material into something beautiful and refined. But the effort is always worth it.

Its a luxury to be able to build this desk and chairs, utilising salvaged, Ancient Jarrah Slabs. It means perfect colour and grain continuity between the individual pieces and ensures a great outcome. Safely delivered to its new home in Sydney last week.

We've been been making the 3.2.1 coffee table for

We've been been making the 3.2.1 coffee table for 8 years now. It's a simple looking table consisting of 3 legs, 2 rails and 1 top. (3.2.1) But it has some nice details. The T section where the rails meet, has a block inlaid to increase the thickness and allow for a smooth transition. It's colour and grain matched so it's not obvious. The tenons at this point are extra long to bridge the short grain adding structural integrity. The end of the rails are coved to match the radius of the leg and the glass top is cut in tight contributing to the structure of the table. The top also hits the exact centre of each leg which are positioned at the points of an equilateral triangle. I have 2 available if anyone is interested? This one in Oak and one in ebonised Jarrah. Both D900 x 390mm.
