Fletch made a phenomenal English elm table with rivers of blue resin running through it for our new barn. He was extremely responsive when I first contacted in, helping me with different ideas for the difficult space between pillars in our lounge area. We then visited him at his workshop and he was friendly and patient while we decided what we wanted.
Fletch and his lovely wife Sharon then delivered the table to us yesterday and we were blown away with how beautiful it is. It really is stunning, a true work of art and fits the awkward space perfectly!

I had to wait quite a while due to unforseen circumstances but I can honestly say it was worth the wait. My table is stunning, beautifully handcrafted and I'm so grateful Fletch talked me out of having a straight edged table, the live edge gives it so much character. The stand exceeded my expectations too , he chose the most interesting peice of wood to create the cantilevered stand . If your looking for something truly unique and special Unique

We commissioned Unique Wild Wood Furniture to make a large coffee table from a piece of yew (about 4cm thick) that they had available. The table was to include infills, as appropriate, of cobalt blue resin. We requested matt metal, powder coated gold legs, which Fletch - who, with his wife, owns the company - agreed he could manufacture. The table was delivered yesterday and it is a wonderful piece of furniture that has been expertly finished and assembled. The grain is shown to excellent advantage and the legs are perfect, as is the resin and finish. I would advise anybody who wants an absolutely
