We don't manufacture.
We listen to the wood.
Pre Furniture has remained on the same Standerton plot for nearly four decades. We source local hardwoods — pine, yellowwood, oak — and finish each piece in one of twelve heritage stains, hand-applied.
No assembly lines. Just the scent of linseed oil and the sound of hand-planes on heritage timber.
