Reviews
"Natural Genius...inspired by the elements. A chest of drawers... like beautiful driftwood weathered by salt, air and water."
Celia Lyttleton

"pieces as rich and tactile as the most heavily carved Jacobean work..."
Marcus Field

"the nicest wooden chair I have ever sat in... The Fat Lady Chair combines fun, flair and comfort in one item. It is a perfect example of what I think of as good design... both appealing to the eye and ideally suited to its function, a unique combination of functionality and art."
Jay Jackson
