Designers, makers and installers of bespoke fitted and free-standing furniture.
Founded in 1999, Jennings-Bramly Furniture is a small business based in
South-East London, making bespoke fitted and free-standing furniture.
All work is designed, made, and installed by myself and my team of
employees. Our aim is to make lasting, attractive and functional
furniture.
We make works for both the commercial and domestic markets, from
bookcases and fitted office furniture to wardrobes and drawing room
alcove cabinets. These works can be made in solid timber, veneered
materials, or of modern manufactured boards which are then painted by
our team, or by the clients themselves.
Care is taken to ensure that all
timbers used are from the 'chain of custody' scheme, which rigorously
documents certified timber
from the forest to the final point of purchase. Other solid timbers
used are reclaimed. Where man-made boards are used, these are most
often moisture-resistant MDF. This material doesn't have the
disadvantages of normal MDF which disintegrates when it gets damp; as
the glue used in manufacture is water-proof. This also makes painting
of the material easier as the end-grains do not act like a sponge.
Although many people dislike MDF, it has many environmental and
practical advantages. It is produced from quick-growing pines which are
replaced after they are felled (thus removing CO2 from the atmosphere,
and storing it in the boards), and also more recently from waste
timbers, saw-mill trimmings, waste paper, etc. When properly treated
and sealed this product will last indefinately, and is a very stable
and smooth substrate for veneers and for painting.
I have a very varied training and experience, aspects of which are
sometimes used in my furniture pieces. I originally trained in
sculpture, then changed to
violin making, followed by a training at RADA in
scenery and prop-making. I have also run a project fitting out a
ballroom.
I worked in scenery alongside my furniture-making until 2006 (working
on West end shows, adverts, feature films such as Pride and Prejudice,
and at the Royal Opera House), when I switched the majority of my time
to furniture-making
