Childrens books
The first three in our series of illustrated children's stories of the Old Forest Folk have now been published and are

Set in and around the New Forest, these tales follow the magical Old Forest Folk as they help the seasons change and bring harmony to all they meet.
A Mid-Winter Tale tells the story of a desperate search for a hedgehog called Bramble. Will they manage to find her before the snow covers her for winter?
The second story follows the adventures of Hekit when magic goes wrong and he shrinks to the same size as the insects who then must help him try and get home.
Our third story, set in late summer follows Niloc as he undertakes a very important mission to see whether the season is changing.
We really hope that you enjoy our stories with their colourful illustrations and look out for the next installment in the series which we are currently writing.

Yew Bowl - the wood has so many colours
Our CollectionsOur ranges include, goblets, rings, bowls, candlesticks and tea holders. There are also wine racks, lamps, small mushrooms and wands, all made from sustainably sourced New Forest timber.
Please check out our site for the pieces that we have designed and made so far and feel free to contact us if you should have any specific requirements or a new idea that you would like us to make for you. The most important thing about our products is that they are unique. They are individually designed from wood sourced from sustainable supplies from the New Forest, They are all handmade from start to finish and for this reason we simply don't make two of anything the same. Each individual piece of is different and has individual characteristics and properties. When we start working a piece we try and bring out the best and most beautiful elements of that product. Peeling away layers of timber that have sometimes been growing for decades, we uncover the grain, colour, shapes, and finishes that would have otherwise remained undiscovered. We bring the wood to life and try to let it tell its own story. Much of our timber was destined for open fires or log burners, but instead we uncover its heart and turn it into a piece of art
