Handcraft Furnishings was founded by Peter Brennan and is based in his home town of Tubbercurry, County Sligo. He has been working as a furniture designer and cabinet maker since 1988.
Handcraft Furnishings design and craft fine furniture, bespoke kitchens and commissioned carpentry pieces from their well equipped workshop based in Tubbercurry.
These pieces range from high quality solid wood in-frame kitchens to finely crafted individual handmade furniture for home or office.
Handcraft Furnishings’ perspective on cabinet making, design and wood finishing, can be described as more of a “global outlook”.
They offer a complete service to support this approach, including consultation, design, manufacture and installation.
Their unique, bespoke furniture is designed and crafted to complement your home, taste and personality.
All items are individually designed and created to suit individual requirements, and can be produced to reflect a modern contemporary, traditional or classic style.
Handcraft’s reputation is based on quality and attention to detail, pride in their work, and an ability to meet their clients needs within their budget.
Handcraft Furnishings are committed and dedicated to providing the best possible service and the highest quality Irish handmade bespoke furniture.
They design specifically for each client's requirements, offering unique and inventive design solutions to ensure your own style and ideas are not compromised.
Each bespoke kitchen they create is special, designed and built for an individual house and an individual customer.
As well as high quality craftsmanship, Handcraft Furnishings are also able to offer an exceptional and personalised computer-aided design service to meet your needs.
Without predetermined kitchen ranges and sizes, any restrictions on choices of materials, colours and finishes, or even a fixed price list, Handcraft Furnishings are able to carefully plan your available space to create the ideal working or living environment.
