Restoration
Missing a spindle? Need to match a Victorian newel post? Send us a photo and we will carve or turn an exact replica. We match any profile, species, and finish — for period properties, heritage restorations, antique furniture, and bespoke joinery projects. We also make wooden formers, patterns and millinery hat blocks from your sample or drawing.
We match what you send us
Match from Photos
Send us a clear photo of the piece you need replicated — a broken baluster, a missing spindle, a damaged finial — and we will produce an exact match. No drawings required. We reverse-engineer the profile, dimensions, and detail from your images and turn or carve each piece to order.
Preserve original character
Period Furniture Restoration & Recreation
Antique and period furniture often has turned legs, stretchers, and decorative elements that are impossible to buy off the shelf. We produce replacement parts in the correct species and finish to keep your piece authentic. From a single chair leg to a full set of dining table stretchers.
Heritage and listed buildings
Architectural Restoration
Replacing damaged or missing architectural woodwork in listed and heritage buildings requires exact profile matching. We work from samples, rubbings, or photographs to reproduce balusters, newel caps, window glazing bars, and decorative mouldings with the precision heritage work demands.
Any shape, any quantity
Bespoke Carving & Turning
Not just turning — we also carve. Decorative corbels, carved capitals, relief panels, and ornate details that cannot be produced on a lathe are hand-carved or CNC-routed to match your originals. One-off samples or production runs, all from your photos or drawings.
Forgotten skills
Bespoke Architectural
Our craftsmen hone traditional techniques and are able to replicate the most complex pieces. Everything can be made by hand when setting up complex machines wouldn't make economic sense.
The perfect base
Formers
Wooden formers, patterns and hat blocks made to your shape — millinery hat blocks, foundry and pottery patterns, leadwork formers, and shapes for vacuum forming or fibreglassing. One-offs or repeat runs, from your drawing, sample or original.
