About us

Welcome to The Furniture Design Workshop. Contemporary or traditional designs realised in the best materials and made to exacting standards.


This newly-formed workshop was established by former teacher of design, Arthur Stewart, in association with other designer-makers.  Some of the workshops designs are sold through galleries such as The Bluecoat Display Centre in Liverpool but most of our work is commissioned by individuals who have specific requirements or who simply want high quality design and craftsmanship.

If you are unsure about what you want or what we can offer then you are welcome to ring, or visit us at Bickerstaffe.

  • Sustainable design

    The Furniture Design Workshop uses a variety of selected woods in the production of our furniture designs.

  • A wealth of experience

    Our designer-craftsmen can realise a wide variety of furniture commissions including handmade tables, chairs and cabinets.

  • Planning your project

    If you are looking to commission a bespoke piece of furniture, we can advise you on everything from materials and veneers to finishes.
