Nailed Desk

Nailed Desk crafted by Bibbings & Hensby is an extension of The New Craftmaker’s ‘Claylarks’ collection. Whilst mudlarking on the foreshore of the River Thames, the duo found several hand forged nails, which prompted their research into historic forms of nailed furniture.

The spirit of simplicity and functional craftsmanship that characterise this traditional vernacular furniture are embodied within the design. Made exclusively with historically faithful nails hand forged by a traditional blacksmith, and without glue or complex joinery, the desk explores the possibilities for the humble nail in contemporary handmade furniture. Scratch lines can be seen all over the furniture, a traditional way to line up nails in vernacular furniture and a further example of the makers commitment to celebrate authentic methods in this piece.

Material: Oak, riven ash handle, wrought iron nails, clear matt oil
