I can’t rate this company highly enough! Toby was extremely helpful, polite and knowledgable - a pleasure to deal with, responding to my many questions very quickly and helping me to arrange a collection despite there being an issue on the website for that option. The item purchased is simply stunning and looks right at home in its new spot - thank you!

I am delighted with a beautiful Windsor Arm Chair that I have just bought from Toby. I have wanted one since 1976 when the 12th Cambridge Folk Festival poster had drawing of a man playing a fiddle seated one and a friend had one in his very cosy kitchen.
Toby was not only very friendly but also professional, knowledgeable and helpful as well as being very understanding and sensitive to the specific characteristics that I was looking for. He found me the perfect chair thinking that I would love it. And indeed I do. Thank you Toby for your outstanding work and customer service. You and your business deserve to do very well.
