This is not furniture you buy. This is furniture you choose. A personalised coffee trunk built entirely by hand in England, finished in rich dark leather, and made to carry your name, your initials, or simply the knowledge that nothing else like it exists anywhere in the world.

This is a rustic blanket box with soul. A luxury storage piece with presence. A custom gift trunk that will be talked about for years.

---

The Personalisation

Every trunk we make is bespoke by nature — no two hides are identical, no two finishes are the same. But we also offer full personalisation on request. Initials, names, or custom detailing can be added to your trunk before it leaves our workshop.

Simply message us with your requirements and we will talk through the options.

---

The Leather

Every panel is cut from premium natural hide and hand dyed in our English workshop. We work the colour deep into the leather, building a rich, dark tone with warmth and depth that only improves with age and handling.

The surface is smooth, deeply tactile, and utterly unlike anything a factory produces. Run your hand across it and you will feel the difference immediately.

---

The Brass Clasp Fittings

Each bespoke leather box is fitted with solid brass clasp fittings, corner guards, and individual studs set evenly around the studded trunk lid — all applied by hand. The brass develops a beautiful warm patina over time, complementing the darkening leather perfectly.

---

The Interior

The interior is finished in clean black — generous, smooth, and ready for blankets, books, wine, or anything you want close at hand but out of sight. The lid opens and closes with a deep, satisfying weight that speaks immediately to the quality of the solid wood base beneath.

---

The Construction

Beneath the hand dyed hide sits a solid wood base and internal frame — heavy, square, and built to last for decades without movement or wear. This is artisan room decor that functions as genuinely useful furniture every single day.

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".
