About Wood Furniture By Peter | Handcrafted Lincolnshire Furniture.

A man wearing glasses, a bright blue t-shirt, and dark trousers standing inside a workshop converted from a shipping container. He is smiling and resting one hand on a wooden workbench stacked with timber and a picture frame. The container's corrugated walls surround the space, which is equipped with woodworking tools, machinery, and wood supplies arranged along the sides.

Handcrafted Fine Furniture, Built to Last a Lifetime

Hi, I’m Peter—a furniture designer and maker based in Heckington, Lincolnshire.

My approach combines traditional bench joinery with modern cabinet making. With formal City & Guilds training and years of hands-on workshop experience, I focus on precision, structural integrity, and clean execution in every piece I build.

Built around Natural Timber

I specialise in crafting bespoke furniture using high-grade hardwoods, including sustainably sourced American White Oak, Walnut, and Ash. Every piece is selected for its grain, character, and natural warmth, ensuring your furniture isn’t just functional—it’s a lasting focal point for your home.

Whether you need a tailor-made coffee table, a bespoke side table, or custom timber joinery designed around your space, I work with you directly from initial sketch to final hand-finish.

Our Timbers & Materials

Every piece starts with hand-selected, sustainably sourced hardwoods chosen for structural stability and distinct character.

Three rectangular wood samples arranged side-by-side against a cream background, each labeled with a brass plaque underneath. From left to right: a light-brown American White Oak sample with straight grain, a rich dark-brown American Black Walnut sample with swirling grain patterns, and a pale cream-colored American Ash sample.
  • American White Oak: Renowned for its exceptional density, striking grain, and outstanding resistance to daily wear. An ideal choice for heavy-use tables and family heirlooms.
  • American Black Walnut: Highly prized for its deep chocolate tones and rich, flowing grain patterns. Offers exceptional dimensional stability and a luxurious finish.
  • American Ash: A resilient, shock-resistant hardwood with a vibrant light tone and prominent grain. Perfect for bright, contemporary interiors and structural joinery.

The Bespoke Process

From raw timber selection to the final coat of finish, here is how we bring your vision to life:

  1. Consultation & Design: We discuss your space, functional needs, and material choices—refining dimensions and details before cutting a single board.
  2. Precision Handcrafting: Using proven bench joinery and meticulous hand-finishing in the Lincolnshire workshop, your piece is constructed with structural integrity at its core.
  3. Delivery & Placement: Your custom furniture is carefully prepared, delivered, and placed directly in your home, complete with care advice on maintaining its natural finish for life.
