The Timber Store Gallery & Guy Butcher Furniture

General information

Guy Butcher. Furniture Designer and Maker. Bespoke Fine Furniture From a workshop on our family farm in rural Herefordshire I design and create individual fine furniture with both contemporary and traditional inspirations. Constants throughout the design and furniture making process are the choice of materials; both in terms of beauty suitability for purpose the methods of construction and the quality of finish. Contemporary and Traditional The following gallery pages have been divided in an attempt to reflect the different styles of furniture I enjoy making. I have tried to split them between contemporary and traditional furniture but find however that the line between the two is not always so clear-cut with contemporary pieces quite often drawing heavily from earlier periods in history and style. Likewise copies or interpretations of pieces from these periods and styles can often fit into a contemporary setting effortlessly or can be adapted to do so. The nature of some pieces means that they can have a foot in either or both galleries. Commisioned Furniture I work mainly to commission designing and making bespoke furniture but usually have a number of pieces for sale and on show in the Timber Store Gallery which is the showroom adjoining my workshop
