LANCASTER & TOMKINSON

Bespoke cabinetry since 1947

Bespoke furniture, crafted from wood to a high quality finish since 1947. Complimenting your dream bathroom, kitchen, home office or entire home with hand finished furniture, fittings and finishing touches, is why we do it.

What does bespoke furniture mean?

Every piece of interior design you can see in the extensive range on our website is specifically crafted to individual needs, ideas and space. Classic, French style furniture, contemporary pieces with ultra-modern functionality and everything in between is possible.

With our specialised support, our nearly 80 years of quality craftsmanship and our industry leading production methods, the next piece to compliment your home is limited only by your imagination. That’s what bespoke furniture means to Lancaster & Tomkinson.

Why bespoke furniture?

There’s something about working with wood that gets under your skin. The grain, the feel of it, the fact that no two pieces will ever be quite the same.

But good furniture making isn’t simply about using solid timber. It’s about understanding materials and choosing the right construction for the piece.

Depending on the design, that might mean solid timber, carefully selected real wood veneers, or a combination of natural and engineered materials. Using a stable substrate such as MDF, for example, can reduce unnecessary weight and movement whilst allowing us to achieve the precision and finish the piece requires.

What matters is how those materials are selected, matched, made and finished.

That knowledge comes from years of working with wood — understanding how different materials behave, where they work best and how to bring them together properly.

The result is furniture made specifically for your home and the way you live: considered, beautifully made and intended to be enjoyed for many years to come.

No two pieces are the same

The benefits of crafting real wood into artisan furniture are many, such as the way it captures and accentuates light and space, or the way no two pieces are truly equal, resulting in an inspiring new creation in every room, every time.
