Bookshelves and Bookcases Handmade in Somerset from Natural Sustainable Wood
Our modern rustic bookshelves and bookcases are each handcrafted to order in our Somerset farmhouse workshop from solid wood, meaning that you can choose the number, depth and height of your shelves.

Bookcases and Bookshelves Made to Measure
Whatever you want to store and display, we can create the ideal bookcases and bookshelves using natural, sustainable wood.
We can make your wooden shelves to hold a lot of weight; strong enough to hold your TV or to provide a space to sit, if needed.
Below: Our built in bookshelves, for the library of a listed property nearby, feature an integrated corner desk and reach to the ceiling.
They have been finished in a clear Danish Oil, which is hardwearing and reveals the beautiful, natural wood grain.
Designs Inspired by the West-Country
Our furniture designs are inspired by the chunky aged timbers of the rustic farmhouses, which surround us in South Somerset, and the sleek curves of modern design.
We work with traditional furniture making techniques to craft high quality storage which is built to last by Marc and our small team of local makers.
Style Options for Your Wooden Bookcase: Efficient storage in beautiful natural wood
Our handmade bookcases and bookshelves can be made with glass doors and drawers or even integrated cupboards.
We often use the classic ‘Dovetail’ joint on our cabinet doors and this has become a signature of our design.
Featuring doors and drawers within your bookcase ensures maximum practicality ,while retaining a harmonious rustic style living space.
