Fox Country Furniture

We seem to be in the middle of a run of oak sideboards and other cabinets currently. This is the type of work we are happiest with and never cease to be surprised by the number of different configurations that our customers come up with.

We made this one just before Christmas and delivered it to the Reading area. The proud new owners took no persuading to fill the rack, then empty it again over the festive season! The wine rack is quite labour intensive so adds an amount to the cost but the end result is worth the extra. this one is 60” x 34” x 21”, guide price £2995

We have just completed this piece in natural oak, offering a range of practical storage space with deep drawers in the middle. While the current trend seems to favour natural oak, we can of course offer our usual range of stains to suit all styles of decor. Our order book is refilling again steadily, with lead times around 4-5 months currently, slightly less than normal.

From Friday 18th our showroom at Longnor Craft Centre and Coffee Shop will be open daily 10am to 5pm, with the workshop just a couple of miles away if you wish to visit.

Please contact us first if you are travelling any distance, 01298 84467.

Its time once again to wish all our customers, past, present and future a happy and safe new year.

2010 wasn’t the easiest for us, hence the lack of posts on my website[sorry!] but we have never stopped churning out beautiful pieces. The considerable snow falls in the Peak District didn’t help our cause at the end of November.

Unusually, most of the snow fell straight down leaving our garden looking rather magical.

We missed several days due to over 12” of snow arriving within 3 days, which put pressure on us in our last week before Christmas, leaving us working late each night and having 6 deliveries to make in the last 5 days.

Things are looking good for the new year as we continue with our small but dedicated workforce. We normally experience a rush of orders after Christmas, although our lead time at this moment is around 3 months so if you are thinking about an order and act quickly, you could get it before the summer!!

This extending table was one of our last items to go out before the holiday. When finished it measured 84” x 40” with the loose leaf fitting neatly into the frame. This one went to London and was priced at £1,900.

If you are considering a special piece of hardwood furniture, feel free to give us a call to discuss it, obligation free. You will be talking directly to the people who make it, so you won’t be paying middle men and you can order exactly what you want, and have it delivered personally by us.

I am usually at the workshop weekdays plus Saturday morning.

Until mid February the showroom at Longnor Craft Centre is only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but can be viewed by appointment if required.

We look forward to making something wonderful for you in 2011!

This compact 6 place rectangular pedestal dining table has recently emerged from the workshop. We have been planning to make it for the showroom for a couple of years now, but after several false starts and once raiding all the parts for an order, we have finally managed to get it into the craft centre.

Made from solid oak with a light stain and moss green leather seats it comfortably bridges the gap between modern and traditional. The finish is our usual satin polyurethane which combines excellent resistance to damage and day to day usability with an irresistable silky feel.

The chairs are our highly acclaimed No 64 design, while the table is our rectangular topped pedestal with uneven length legs to give maximum stability whilst minimising any obstruction under the table, so a chair could be placed almost anywhere around it without fouling the legs below.

This set, comprising 4 chairs and the 52” x 36” table, is available  now in the showroom for £2699.

We offer delivery throughout Great Britain in our own vehicle on a cost covering basis.

For further details or to discuss an order, please call us at the workshop on 01298 84467.
