šŸ‘ A Chair Full of Stories: Our New Sheep Storytelling Chair

In the rolling hills of Mid-Wales, surrounded by bleating flocks and ancient oak woodlands, a new creation has taken shape in our workshop: the Sheep Storytelling Chair.

Hand-carved from locally sourced oak, this chair was designed especially for a school in Shepton Mallet, where sheep are a cherished part of the local identity. With sheep statues on their roundabout and outside their school gates, it only made sense that their storytime corner should celebrate the same beloved animal.

A Seat of Imagination

At the heart of the chair stands a proud Swaledale ram, its spiralled horns and flowing fleece captured in intricate detail. Below him, two gentle lambs curl up peacefully on the arms, inviting children to settle in and listen—or take a turn telling their own tales. Every swirl in the wood grain, every carved curl of fleece, adds to the magic.

Whether placed in a school garden, under an old tree, or in a library reading nook, this chair is more than furniture. It’s an invitation to wonder.

Made in Wales, Inspired by Nature

Each storytelling chair we make is unique. Crafted from oak right here in Mid-Wales, this chair is built to last generations—sturdy, weatherproof, and full of character.

And while this one celebrates sheep, we’ve created chairs featuring everything from stags and owls to dragons and hobbits. The only limit is the imagination.

Could We Carve One for You?
