Each storytelling chair in this collection is carved by hand in our workshop on the edge of Eryri National Park in Mid Wales — no two ever quite the same. From barn owls to dragons, foxes to stags, our chairs have found their way into schools, libraries, reading gardens and forest schools across the UK.

They’re designed to do one thing really well: make children want to sit down and listen.

We’ve been making them for over 20 years, always from sustainably sourced hardwood, always shaped with the same care and attention to the character of the wood and the creature being carved.

Have a particular animal, theme or school crest in mind? We’d love to make something just for you. Start a bespoke project →
