The Beauty of Hand-Made Furniture by Abbey Kitchens
Every home deserves furniture that doesn’t just fill space — it elevates it. At Abbey Kitchens, our bespoke furniture combines traditional craftsmanship, creative design, and artisan skill to bring lasting character into your home. Each piece is carefully designed and built by hand, ensuring it reflects your personality and the way you live.
Crafted for You — Every Detail
We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all.” All of our furniture is made-to-measure, precisely tailored to your space and vision. Whether it’s fitted wardrobes, media units, boot rooms or a bespoke wine room, every project begins with you.
Our furniture is designed, crafted, fitted and finished by our team. You can choose every detail of your furniture: the size, the layout, the material, the colour and the finish. It’s not just furniture — it’s your furniture.
Materials & Finish — Artisan Quality That Lasts
We source sustainable, high-quality timbers that give our furniture durability and timeless appeal. Painted finishes often use Siberian pine, selected for its density and strength, but we also work with oak, beech, maple, ash, alder and walnut — allowing you to balance look, strength and character.
Because every item is made to order, we ensure a level of craftsmanship and creativity that mass-produced furniture simply cannot match. From curved edges that soften a room’s lines, to intricate mouldings that add character, to hand-painted finishes that give depth and personality, each piece is designed to be as beautiful as it is functional.
Problem-Solving Design for Every Home
No two homes are alike, and neither are their challenges. Many properties — especially older Cotswold homes — have awkward corners, unusual alcoves, or sloping ceilings that make standard furniture impractical. This is where bespoke design excels.
At Abbey Kitchens, we specialise in problem-solving through furniture design:
- Maximising awkward spaces with tailored cabinetry that fits perfectly where off-the-shelf pieces can’t.
- Blending storage with style, creating solutions that are both highly functional and visually harmonious.
- Designing multi-purpose furniture that works harder for you — such as window seats with hidden storage or media units that conceal technology.
Every project is an opportunity to create something practical and imaginative, turning limitations into standout features.
Custom Dining Tables & Freestanding Furniture
A dining table is more than a place to eat — it’s where families gather, conversations flow, and memories are made. Our bespoke dining tables are designed to be the centrepiece of your home, crafted with precision and tailored to your preferred size, shape, timber and finish. From rustic farmhouse charm to sleek contemporary minimalism, we create tables that reflect both your taste and our artisan skill.
