Original furniture designs handmade in wood

Made, by Saul Parkinson

I’m passionate about designing and making beautiful, functional furniture that will last for generations to come.

After training in traditional cabinet and fine furniture making I work using classic joinery techniques that you sadly don’t see in today’s mass-produced furniture.

Timber is a fantastic, natural material to work with and I take the time to carefully select and present each piece to showcase the wood’s unique character.

Bespoke design means I can work with you to craft just the right piece for your needs, made with care right here in Auckland.

Featured work

  • Cascade desk - available to buy now

    The Cascade desk is designed for ergonomic computer based work. The legs emerge through the table top with wedged through-tenon joinery, and the corners cascade down.

  • Oak bookcase

    Norrie cabinet

    A commission in white oak featuring classic styling and subtle details. With height to showcase a collection of tall art books and a shelf for AV equipment.

  • Moire hall table

    The Moire hall table is uniquely formed from a lattice of steam-bent walnut staves. Surprising ‘moire’ patterns caused by the interleaving staves morph, as the table is viewed from different angles.
