Making sustainable living beautiful.
Artisan homeware handcrafted in England.
Inspired by the undulating Atlantic Ocean as it meets his native Cornish coastline, Tom Raffield’s sculptural wooden homewares are a blend of contemporary design and ancient natural materials. Tom and his talented team handcraft intricate, organic curves and twists for his award-winning range of lighting, furniture, and home accessories from their workshops in Cornwall.
For over a decade and a half, Tom Raffield has proudly demonstrated an unwavering commitment to sustainability. From humble beginnings in 2008, the lifestyle brand has blossomed into a sustainability trailblazer, setting the benchmark for eco-conscious design practices that celebrate the beauty of nature. Each meticulously crafted piece of homeware not only transforms living spaces but also advocates for a greener, more sustainable world.
Their design and craft processes are devised to protect and prevent damage to the environment. Drawing on techniques that are altogether friendlier, such as steam bending, naturally air-drying timber, dry construction processes with screws and staples, and keeping glue use to a minimum, lessens the impact on the very thing that inspires Tom – the natural world.
Tom implements innovative methods and components that are easy to dismantle for repairing, re-using or recycling if needed. These circular design methods give the eco-conscious team the tools to prevent the creation of waste and pollution right from the start.
Crafting heirlooms of the future, Tom and his team are committed to making superior quality homeware pieces that are loved, used and stand the test of time. At every point in their process they are driven by longevity, responsibility, and doing what’s right.
