The Real Wood Furniture Company
Furniture
Made in England with pride & passion…
The Real Wood Furniture Company has been making beautiful furniture from solid British hard woods since 1989 and has built a nationwide reputation for design, quality and customer service.
Our pieces range from the traditional to the contemporary, featuring the best sustainably sourced home grown timbers. We invite you to explore our website, watch our film, and if you can… to visit our wonderful showrooms outside Chipping Norton. Here we display examples of almost everything we make. See… touch… and be inspired…
After 20 years of successful and enjoyable trading in Woodstock, The Real Wood Furniture Company has relocated to larger showrooms in a beautifully restored former Coaching Inn, one mile North East of Chipping Norton town centre.
We have undertaken a lengthy and thorough restoration of our beautiful building which was built in 1704. The Inn has been through many changes, and has seen numerous uses over the years…
At one time the building was split into three separate cottages, but then subsequently converted back to one large residence. Work was undertaken to turn it into a nursing home in the mid 20th century which involved the creation of a myriad of small rooms. The nursing home never opened but the small rooms remained. In latter years the building has been used residentially and partially in connection with a kennels and cattery business which was mainly run from various outbuildings on the site. We hope we have achieved a sympathetic and sensitive restoration of the building, which is worthy of a visit in its own right!
The contemporary sits along side the traditional in spaces featuring exposed stone and brick, and lime plaster walls, with timber and stone floors, stunning archways and exposed roof timers, accent lighting and delicious scents. Take a look at our restoration gallery to see how we have transformed the building. New designs have been added to our unique collection of hand crafted English oak, burr oak, and ash country furniture with elm, walnut, forged steel and glass added to the mix of materials that we work with.
Our aim is to offer you a relaxed and enjoyable experience. We encourage you to wander through our various rooms at your leisure, to see, to touch, to seek inspiration, and to fully appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of our work. If you need help and advice, Chris or a member of the team will be happy to assist.
