** HUGE NEWS **

Well, the news is finally out… after nearly 40 years in Fangfoss, it’s time for something new.

Over the next two weeks, we’ll be moving every horse, bracket, length of metal, sewing machine — and of course our fantastic staff — to our brand new workshops.

We’ve been incredibly fortunate to design and shape this amazing new space, and we’re so excited for the next stage of our journey as a company, particularly in 2026 as we celebrate our 50th anniversary.
If you’re placing orders or need any support during the move, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Response times may be a little slower than usual while we get everything settled in.

Once we’re ready to reveal the final details we will certainly be letting everyone know🐴

Thank you for your support today and always.
James and Becca🐴🩷
