Beautiful Yew wood pieces, sold over the years.

Thought I’d create a few posts on beautiful yew wood pieces I’ve sold over the past few decade’s.

Those who know me, know of my memory problem, due to an accident 28 years ago.
I have a short term memory.
However, every one of these wonderful pieces, I know who purchased, what they paid and where they sit in their beautiful homes.
For these memories I’m ever so grateful ❤️

Rare English Regency yew wood tea caddy.
Sold to one of my favourite ever customers (Jane T) sadly moved back to the UK around a decade ago.

The shaped arm rest and domino shaped arm support from an early 19th century English yew wood windsor armchair.
(Belonged to Betty L) another wonderful kind customer, sadly now passed on.

The two long yew wood panelled doors to a rare 18th century French yew wood armoire.

Very special piece, probably will have to crane into my apartment as to high for the lifts.
Will sit in my spare room and hold lots of clothes and stuff… will look amazing once there!
