| Mr I McMillan | 20th January 2010 | Carlisle Scotland | Hello John, My thanks to you for the delivery of the furniture ordered. It is very beautifully made. I was able to get into a crate when a joiner came to do other jobs. With regards, Ian McMillan |
| Mrs J Rowe | 5th January 2010 | Morayshire, UK | Dear Mr Williams, The nest of tables arrived just before Christmas and I was really delighted with product, craftmanship and the secure packaging. It was just what I had hoped for. I look forward visiting your website for another 'browse' again. Wishing you a successful New Year. Yours faithfully, Mrs Jacqueline Rowe |
| Mr M Church | 3rd January 2010 | County Durham , UK | Hi John, Thanks for your quick response, and I will try the oil you recommend. Thanks again for your help and for the furniture - the units have been much admired by guests this last week. Best regards, Mike |
| Mr D Warder | 2nd January 2010 | Essex , UK | Hi John Happy new year to you also . We did receive our furniture on Christmas eve after having to wait in for the previous day when it was supposed to be delivered, but now that it is here and we have unwrapped it, it is lovely and matches the table beautifully thank you hope you had a nice holiday Best regards David & Elaine Warder |
| Mrs S Cabrelli | 6th July 2009 | Leicester UK | Hi John
Little later than we should be but we have collected our DVD HiFi table no problems spot on really beautiful perfect match to my other furniture have attached picture of table in situ. Many thanks for your help and patience SUE CABRELLI |
| Mrs. D Harmer | 29th June 2009 | Cadiz - Spain | Hi John Sorry for the delay in letting you know about the furniture. We have been renovating our house so wanted to wait until we had somewhere to put the furniture before we opened it. All the furniture has arrived safely and not damaged. We are really pleased with the furniture. Regards Diane |
| Mr T Ford | 26th June 2009 | London , UK | Dear John, Apologies for the delay - I have only just had time to unpack the cabinet. Everything is fine, and the quality is excellent - actually better than the two cabinets that I have already. The colour match is pretty good, too, although the finish isn't quite so successful. You will remember that we were trying to obtain an eggshell/silk finish. The packaging was marked 'matt', and the finish is actually very dull. But this is a very minor point, and we are more than delighted with the end result, and also with the service provided by your company. Kind regards. Trevor Ford. This was the factories first attempt at obtaining a sheen finish. |
| Mr G Joiner | 26th June 2009 | Plymouth , UK | I can confirm the tables reached us in a very good condition. The packaging was well done and very substantial. The small pot of wood dye or varnish was a nice gesture should the need arise where its use would be required.
Regards Mr G Joiner |
| David Roberts | 25th June 20090 | Chester , UK | Hi John Many thanks TV cabinet looks great regards David Roberts |
| Marilyn Roseman | 24th June 2009 | Manchester , UK | Hello John
The sideboard arrived today. I am delighted with it. It is a gorgeous colour and has come out of it’s packaging without any damage.
The only thing is that one of the door handles is missing the brass back plate, the packer must have dropped it as he reversed the handles for transport.
Please could you ask the manufacturer to supply a replacement as one of the door handles does not match the other three now.
Other than this, it is a lovely piece of furniture. Marilyn Roseman |
| Karen White | 24th June 2009 | Waterlooville UK | Hi John, Managed to find two strong men yesterday and remove the transit supports, on the base of the tall glazed cabinet. It is now correctly positioned on top of the base unit. The quality and finish of all the pieces is superb and I am very very pleased overall. The arrival of the furniture has been somewhat of an event and lots of friends have popped in to view and admire it. So you never know, I might have got some more business for you. Thanks Karen |
| Gordon Brown | 19th June 2009 | Sidmouth UK | Hi John Just to let you know that we took delivery of the CD Rosewood Cabinet that we ordered through you. It arrived on Wednesday (17th June) and Ann and I felt that we just had to write to you to say how thrilled we are with the cabinet and to congratulate you on the service and regular updates you supplied throughout the whole process. We had collected many pieces of rosewood furniture while working in the Far East and have had them for over 20 years. Our latest acquisition, the CD Cabinet, now sits in our Living Room alongside our other pieces; it is so perfect a match that you would think that it had always been there. Should we ever require another piece we would have no hesitation in contacting you as we know that service and quality will be guaranteed. Again thank you so much. Ann and Gordon Brown |
| Mr T Morgan | 19th June 2009 | Newport UK | Tables arrived this morning ,all in good condition thank you, T.H.Morgan |
| Ann de Silva | 19th May 2009 | Dalsjofors, Sweden | Dear John, I am pleased to inform you that the table and chairs are all unpacked and installed and I am so happy with them. They are superb , the colour , the finish , perfect . I´m a bit of a cynic so I was hoping but not expecting such 100% perfection . They actually arrived last week but the crates where so tightly constructed and secure it took us a couple of days to get into them and extract everything. The customs bill was horrific even more than I´d reckoned with but even that caused a smile due to a very chinese lady working for the handling company who was very concerned over the large amount I had to pay.She was the final chinese stamp on my table ! When I recover financially I shall be back for other items, meanwhile I´ll be browsing your site regularly.Thank you very much, I am so satisfied. Best regards Ann De Silva |

Dear john, Firstly thank you for replying to me so soon and secondly thank you so much for such beautiful furniture! I have not had a chance to check it fully, but a slight problem is that the "Long Life" door handles to the display cabinet do not match. Two are gold colour and the other two seem to be a dull tarnished grey colour. Any chance you could send us a set of four matching handles please? (preferably the polished gold colour)( We sent them same day to replace the tarnished ones ). Overall your service has been exceptional and the delivery men delivered inside the house (unfortunately they arrived at around 6pm because of traffic). Best Regards,Najeeb |

Hi John, The TV cabinet arrived in perfect condition and I am delighted. I now wish to
obtain quotes for some more items. Item 1. Bedside cabinet FF7352L but measuring
20" wide x 17" high x 20"deep. The photograph in the web catalogue appears to
have carving around the drawer handles. I would want it in Rosewood but no
carving on the drawers and no holes for handles. (I will obtain my own handles
and drill holes to suite.) Same colour and finish as the TV cabinet. Rear of
cabinet to have sams finish as sides. Sincerely, John Harding |

I checked the drawers of the altar table, but they were empty. I didn't see anything else in the crate.Please can you send me one for future use Rick ** We subsequently air mailed a repair kit |

Mr Williams Thank you for my nest of tables which arrived today. They are absolutely stunning. I was very worried about online shopping but thankyou for your help in " Walking me through " the ordering process. I am not used to the internet - and did not feel very happy about ordering - but you put my mind at rest. I am so pleased with my purchase. I will be ordering more furniture for my lounge towards the end of the year - and will speak to you then. |
