Established in 1990 we have over 30 years experience and an excellent reputation within the industry. We have recently tutored Spring 2019 QEST Scholar, Jack Relton. Funding from QEST facilited Jack to undertake his first formal training, a 12 week course at Williams and Cleal, where he honed his craft and widened his knowledge of materials, traditional construction techniques and hand skills.
Our training will enable Jack to create a craft focused, contemporary range of furniture, continuing the legacy of British Furniture Making.
