Traditional Hand Carving Method used on your unique and exclusive, limited edition Baronial Hand Carved Feasting Table and Chairs.

Each piece of commissioned Fine English Oak or Maple will be an individual varying in tone and grain, but this only adds to the interest and enjoyment of your fine piece of furniture. First the Oak is air dried for 2 years, further drying in a kiln brings the moisture content down to 11% which uniforms the wood and keeps it stable.

Drying over such an extended period gives the wood excellent carving properties and allows the natural magical lustre of the wood to emerge. The boards are quarter sawn and flat dowel jointed, the method used for hundreds of years by master cabinet makers, then laid to rest for a week to ensure that it settles and is ready for the next process. Only when we are satisfied that the wood is ready, the hand carving with traditional tools begins. This process takes time and is lovingly carried out by craftsman trained in the time honoured English tradition.

The whole of the surface and sides are hand carved to give a wonderful, warm, soft, rippled textured finish. We then fume the wood with a concoction of traditional preparations which when in contact with the natural tanning in the wood oxidises and produces a surface that our ancestors would have produced over 400 years ago. Examples of this method of treating wood can be still be seen today in Shakespeare country. Linseed Oil and Danish Oil are then tenderly massaged into the English Oak and finally burnished until it glows and the true beauty of the wood comes through. The wrought iron medieval pedestal support and chair frames are hand crafted to compliment and enhance the look of those historic times, full of magic, mystery and the legends of old.
