Inspired by the industrious baker's rack. With a rich history
dating back to the 17th century, baker's racks were originally used
in French bakeries to cool loaves of bread, and later adopted in
England. Baker's racks were a common fixture in Victorian kitchens
and evolved into functional storage and display pieces for both
kitchens and living spaces, infusing a room with heritage, charm,
and character. Our Baker's Rack bookcase is handcrafted in chunky
planks of reclaimed oak, weathered over a century of use to create
a beautiful patina unique to each piece. Iron bars stretch across
the back of each shelf and heavy castors give a nod to the original
baker's racks, which would have been wheeled from the oven to tempt
patrons with delicious, freshly baked fare.
“I’ve always loved reclaimed wood, it has an honesty and a purity. Old wood is seasoned; the colour’s better, it feels better, it just looks more natural.”

Steeped in character
reclaimed Oak
Our solid reclaimed oak repurposes all the different structural
parts of the original building - from beams to floorboards to
trusses. Its provenance is lovingly preserved in the dowels, holes,
nail heads, cracks, and splits present in the wood - which all
speak of its storied past.
Sam was helpful but not pushy - which I really appreciated. Looking forward to seeing the end product - selection of the best lights in london!

They were warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. At no point did we feel any pressure to buy - space to browse and choose was allowed. I would highly recommend them, without any reservation. There was also a very healthy discount on the sofa which made it much more
