In a revival of a traditional West Country craft, Jeromy Rowett makes stylish Yealmpton Chairs.
These hand-made chairs are a form of continuous-arm windsor chair, in which the arms are formed as a single curve with the back hoop, a design unique in the UK to this part of Devon.
An example of one of these chairs is illustrated on the right. For a full description and details, click here.
As well as the chairs, he also offers a range of complementary tables, both full-size dining tables and smaller coffee tables, in an innovative design.
He is also able to make all kinds of bespoke items of furniture, from garden tables and chairs through bookcases to piano stools. Some recent examples he has made are illustrated here.
All the furniture is hand-made, usually using locally-sourced materials, in his workshop on the edge of the village of Yealmpton in Devon.
