Recycled wood and reclaimed iron work, ideally for hanging items.
A simple length of reclaimed timber, planed smooth and finished with wax, carrying the quiet presence of burnt imagery and script.
The surface has been carefully aged, then marked by hand — the design burned into the wood rather than applied, leaving a permanent impression that sits within the grain itself. Dark lines soften at the edges, echoing ink on paper, weathered by time.
There is a stillness to this piece. A sense of balance. Nothing unnecessary.
Set with three solid iron hooks bought at a building salvage store in San Diego, the board remains practical — made to hold coats, scarves, or everyday objects — yet it carries something more reflective in its form and surface.
The combination of reclaimed British timber and Japanese-inspired mark-making creates a meeting of materials and ideas: utility and quiet craft, use and contemplation.
The board is 92 x 10 cm and is a unique piece. The grain, the burn, the balance — never repeated.
Recycled wood and reclaimed iron work, ideally for hanging items.
A bold piece of reclaimed timber fitted with three vintage-style metal valve handles — industrial, tactile, and full of character.
The deep, rich tones of the wood are enhanced by its carved surface, catching light across the grain and revealing layers of colour beneath. Set into this are the valve handles — once part of another system, now reimagined as functional hooks.
There is a subtle steampunk influence here: machinery made decorative, industry softened into the home. Solid, playful, and unmistakably unique.
The hardware was sourced from a reclamation yard in San Diego, adding another layer to its story of reuse and reinvention.
The board is 60 x 10 cm with 3 hooks and ideal for coats, hats, or simply as a statement piece — where utility meets imagination.

Painted once, weathered many times, this reclaimed timber board carries the faded blues and softened textures of coastal life.
Fitted with a row of aged metal hooks, each slightly different in form and patina, the piece feels as though it has come from a harbour wall, a boat shed, or a long-forgotten seaside workshop.
The wood shows its history openly — grain raised, paint worn back, edges softened by time. Nothing here is uniform, and that is its charm.
The hooks themselves were sourced from a reclamation yard in San Diego — bringing a subtle meeting of coastlines, where materials from one shore find a new life on another.
At 80 x 10 cm with 4 hooks, this is a functional piece with a calm, weathered presence — ideal for hallways, bathrooms, or anywhere that calls for texture and story.
Recycled wood and reclaimed iron work, ideally for hanging items.
A length of reclaimed timber, worn smooth by time, now set with three solid iron hooks — simple, useful, and full of quiet character.
The wood carries the marks of its previous life: softened grain, pale weathering, and subtle tonal shifts that only come from years of use. Set against this, the dark iron hooks bring strength and contrast — practical, honest, and built to last.
There is something of the workshop here, something of the hallway, something of the old stable wall. A piece made not just to be seen, but to be used daily.
Sourced and assembled using reclaimed materials, including hardware found in a building salvage yard in San Diego, this rail carries a quiet story of travel and reuse.
The rack is 71 x 10 cm in size and perfect for coats, scarves, bags, or simply to bring a sense of lived-in warmth to a space.
