Sintra Bobbin Lamp Base
Our take on the timeless bobbin lamp base, newly introduced as part of the Sintra collection. Turned entirely by hand in our West Sussex workshop and finished on the lathe for a balanced and immaculate surface that follows every contour beautifully. The lamp features a solid oak column with the classic bobbin form, thoughtfully proportioned to echo the design language of the Sintra collection. It rests on a sculpted ogee detail that accentuates the turning and flows into a generously sized base, designed to ground the piece with stability and grace. The base itself descends in a gentle crescendo, shaped to give a sense of weight and quiet refinement.
Fitted as standard with a traditional bayonet bulb holder made from solid brass, with the switch neatly integrated, the lamp combines craft and function in a dependable and refined way. The cord is made from natural jute, a small detail that ties it beautifully to other natural materials and complements its surroundings effortlessly. All components are professionally fitted and PAT tested for safety and reliability. This piece can be supplied with fittings for UK, EU or USA standards.
Available in two finishes: raw oak for a softer, ever evolving natural tone, or traditional dark oak, tinted with natural pigments for a deeper hue that captures the light in an elegant way and accentuates the grain. The Sintra Bobbin Lamp Base is a small heirloom in its own right, a perfect finishing touch to a room and a thoughtful gift to be used and loved for years to come.

The Journey of Our Pieces
FROM TIMBER TO HEIRLOOM
To create our pieces, we follow a considered journey, from the first choice of timber through to the final hand-finished touch. Each stage is shaped by craft, tradition, and a lasting respect for materials, resulting in furniture made to endure for generations.
Choosing the Grain
We begin at local yards, walking through stacks of logs to find timber with depth and beauty, each board responsibly forested and chosen by hand for its grain, tone, and strength, matched carefully to the role it will serve in the finished piece.
Crafting the Frame
Traditional joinery is carefully blended with modern techniques, guided by lessons from restoration and an understanding of what truly endures, so that every joint is resilient and every structure built with longevity in mind.
Building the Drawers
Entirely solid, dovetailed boxes run on a timber-made system, designed to glide smoothly and last for generations. Their interiors are protected but not stained, allowing easy restoration and revealing the natural character of the wood.
Shaping the Details
From beads and mouldings to the turning of a leg, the finer elements are crafted by hand with care and precision. Each cut and curve carries subtle variations of touch, giving individuality to the piece and a richness that builds across its form, ensuring no two are ever quite the same.
Bringing Out the Grain
Natural oils and stains are worked patiently by hand, chosen to protect the timber while allowing its grain to remain open and alive. This approach preserves the depth and movement of the wood, giving each surface a richness that matures over time and a finish that feels both enduring and true.
Completing the Piece
Each design is finished with materials chosen to complement its form, from solid brass fittings to marble tops, glass panels, or mirrors. These elements are selected for permanence as much as beauty, bringing balance and integrity that ground the furniture with a lasting sense of elegance.
