Designing and handcrafting unique free-standing furniture
At the heart of our work is a dynamic harmony between designing and making, realised through fine craftsmanship. We think carefully about process and materials, as well as context and function to create refined pieces that are built to last.
David's capacity for custom commissioned pieces have included coffee, dining and side tables, credenzas and side-boards, media units and custom shelving, console tables, chairs, stools and smaller homewares such as mirrors and coat stands.
What We Do
From luxury bespoke furniture pieces to private commissions, our workshop has different services available to suit a multitude of clients.
Custom Pieces
Exclusive offerings of exquisite, free-standing furniture and interior accessories personally designed and handmade by David Carpendale. Bringing together precious metals, natural stone, and sustainable hardwoods, these pieces are designed and manufactured as limited editions by David. Each work will be individually signed and stamped before leaving the workshop. Browse these available one-off works here.
Private Commissions
Private Commissions to develop pieces as unique as each of our clients. Combinations of traditional and modern techniques with exceptional attention to detail provide the basis for these truly personal works. David has a passion for working with precious metals such as brass and copper, natural stone and marble and luxury fabrics and coverings. Find out more about the comissioning service here.

What our Clients Say
"We engaged David to make a bookcase similar in size and style to an old bookcase in our hall. The new bookcase is in solid walnut with free-standing legs. We are absolutely delighted with the finished product. David called to the house and measured the space allocated. There was great attention to detail and personal recommendations. We highly recommend David for his professional approach."
Ber & Eamonn
"From the outset a top-class professional service. My initial approach had to do with my desire to replicate a modern response to a folding chair handed down to me by my parents. David listened and said he would be happy to visit and take it from there. I took delivery of my folding chair in natural white oak with brass fittings some days ago. A work of beauty, wonderful execution, and finish."

"David, Many thanks for delivering our bespoke sideboard yesterday. We both absolutely love it. It's beautiful and much better than any ready-made piece. Having something handcrafted just for us is very personal."
