A converted cylindrical plant sprayer 🪴🚿
This was originally used for spreading fungicide or insecticide onto plants and is made from copper with a brass trim.
The small brass plate has the ‘ENOTS’ trademark of Benton & Stone (Enots is Stone spelt backwards) who were based in Aston, near Birmingham. The company was founded in 1814 and the sprayer dates from 1850 to 1900.
We’ve mounted the sprayer onto a teak base and used fittings that compliment the original features.

Repurpose 🪵🪚🛠
This disused sack barrow was calling out to be used again!!
We refurbished it back to it’s former Glory and then added scaffold board shelves to a bespoke length. We secured it using galvanised tubes and key clamp fittings at the opposite end.
Swipe for some before pics and a really cool, original information sheet we came across while doing some research for the restoration. Our one is a Manchester pattern.

This mid century, G Plan TV cabinet was delivered to last week.
It needed a bit of love and attention, but it’s got a new lease of life now!
The colour contrast of black against the teak is a great combination. 🖤🧡

Made from a piece of Teak, which just so happens to have been salvaged from an old school science lab!! 🧪🤓
