The wooden barrel has a mystique all of its own, coopering is the age of  barrel making, which has changed little over the years. In order to  achieve this highest standard of quality a lot of the work must still be  done by a highly skilled Cooper.
Until a century ago all villages had a Cooper, making barrels for the  storage of food & drink as well as buckets, tubs, butter churns and  household utensils for the village.
 
We continue to use traditional skills, recycling  genuine  oak whiskey/wine barrels staves heads & hoops. All of these   materials have a history from a previous life and therefore a story to   tell, from Jack Daniels bourbon barrels to Bordeaux wine barrels and   Scottish whiskey barrels. We use all of these to produce a quality range   of oak tubs, water barrels/butts, water features, barrel furniture and   decor, bringing their bygone charm to our modern world.
