Bog Yew Cabinet

This little wall cabinet really is quite unique.  The doors are made from Bog Yew - that is, Yew which was buried in the peat of the Fens for thousands of years.  Bog Oak (which we used for the 'butterfly') is a better-known bog timber, but Bog Yew is really quite rare - you won't get another one quite like this!  The rest of the cabinet is Ash, stained black to set off the beautiful, mellow colour of the doors.

The shelf is adjustable.

Approx:  22" high   x  16" wide  x  8" deep   

 

A variety of stools - all with Ash legs wedged with Bog Oak.  They are all about 18" high which is standard chair height so perfect for sitting on, but also really useful as a little table for your glass, cuppa, book, etc.

All measurements are approximate.

Based on a Welsh stick chair, but with a more contoured seat than is traditional which makes it really comfortable.  The seat and comb are made from absolutely beautiful Rippled Sycamore grown at Powys Castle - very fitting for a Welsh stick chair don't you think?  The rest is Rippled Sycamore grown just four miles from our workshop and it has wedges and square pegs in round holes made from ancient Bog Oak.  Pesky little woodworm liked the timber for the seat as much as we do, but we've seen them off with several 'treatments' and the holes have been filled, so it's still beautiful!
