Our process of brush painting not only creates a subtle traditional appearance but enables our furniture to be quickly and easily touched up in the event of the inevitable knocks and scrapes that happen over time. We paint the interiors and exteriors of our cabinets using water based paints, which are brush applied to all the exterior surfaces. These solid timber boards are used in combination with birch plywood interior components to provide the perfect balance of traditional and engineered materials. We use solid birch cheeks on the exterior of our cupboard carcasses as well as solid birch shelves, combined with traditional tongue and groove hardwood backboards. The oak drawers replicate exactly the look of a traditionally hand cut dovetailed drawer, whilst incorporating the practicality of a soft close drawer runner, something that no other furniture maker is able to offer. Our Classic English kitchen cupboards have traditionally-made doors and fascias, constructed from prime ‘rock maple’, which we carefully select to ensure the tightest of tolerances. Looking to the past for inspiration is such a clever way to furnish your home, it ensures an enviable restraint which is the key to great design. These cupboards are a true piece of England, they are wonderfully elegant and charming in a practical way. Every piece of furniture feels substantial and is handmade from solid hardwood so it’s tough and strong too. This furniture is really well suited to large homes with high ceilings, it has a grandeur about it but also a simplicity that enables it to work in sculleries, boot rooms and utilities as well as kitchens. Paul adapted certain pieces, he hid dishwashers and appliances behind doors and updated the internals so that they would work perfectly in a modern kitchen, whilst retaining their integrity and imposing scale.

This era of furniture is beautifully simple, functional and yet grand in an understated way. He took inspiration from traditional Georgian furniture, the proportions and the styling, and created a perfect range of kitchen cupboards. This is where it all began for deVOL, these cupboards were designed by Paul in the very beginning. CREATE A TRADITIONAL COTTAGE KITCHEN WITH A BUTLER'S SINK AND SHEILA MAID.
