Santiago Scalloped Washstand, Calacatta Marble Top
The Santiago Scalloped Washstand blends the charm of traditional antique washstands with playful elegance, featuring our signature scalloped detailing, hand-turned legs, and decorative upstand finials. Handcrafted entirely from solid timber, using traditional methods, the piece includes two dovetailed drawers beneath a honed Calacatta marble top, chosen for its soft grey and beige tones that beautifully complement the warmth of the wood.
Each washstand is handmade in our West Sussex workshop from responsibly sourced timber, supplied by local businesses who share our commitment to sustainability and traceability. Every board is carefully selected to ensure a harmonious grain throughout. Our signature finishes and hardware options allow the washstand to be personalised to your interior while preserving its original character.
Drawing on our experience in furniture restoration, we combine traditional craftsmanship with contemporary techniques to create pieces designed to age gracefully. Each Santiago Washstand is thoughtfully built as an heirloom to be cherished for generations. Due to marble’s natural uniqueness, we’ll share images of your chosen slab during production for your approval before final assembly.

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.
