John Beresford Artisan Furniture


As a self employed maker, I'm able to take on a variety of  types of woodwork.


The workshop is between Bath and Bristol, and is set up for creating pieces from solid hardwoods, soft woods and sheet materials with brush painted or oiled finishes.


The majority of my projects are bespoke cabinetry and fitted storages solutions, but I'm happy to make anything from traditional Georgian alcove units to contemporary kitchens, wardrobes, studies, as well as freestanding furniture and personalised gifts.


For several years I worked with Martin Kalberer (CK Furniture) and Ken Carter (Albero). When a new workshop became available on the same farm I hooked up with college friend John Jacques (Radiance Furniture), and we've been there ever since. John and I share the workshop and team up on larger projects, while also keeping busy with our own clients and commissions.


There won't be a picture on this site of what you're looking for, because everything I make is a bespoke solution for my customers individual requirements. 


Following about 17 years of international show biz, I re-trained in furniture making and settled in Somerset with Nikki and our two children.


***Stop press*** !! 

While I continue to love creating one off pieces of bespoke furniture, since the beginning of 2023 I am now focussing on kitchens. I proudly run the Bath area branch of www.kitchenmakeovers.co.uk
