Stewart Linford started building chairs in 1976 in a small workshop consisting of old farm buildings at Little Kingshill, Buckinghamshire, in the heart of Englands furniture making country.
The first pieces produced were traditional country chairs, this became a collection of classic English Windsor Chair designs known as the Windsor Range. Complementary tables were added to form a connoisseur group of models available in a wide variety of timbers, the most intriguing being burr elm and yew. At the end of the 1970s a less elaborate selection of tables and chairs was introduced using a smaller number of hardwoods predominantly elm and beech or oak, called the Farmhouse Range. During the mid 1980s cabinet making was added to the repertoire, thus creating the Cabinet Range. In addition all kinds of cabinets are regularly made to customers specifications.
The business has grown considerably over the last twenty five years by building only the finest quality furniture and developing a style unique to Stewart Linford.
The factory, head office and showrooms are situated at Kitchener Works, High Wycombe which is a purpose built furniture factory dating back to the early years of this century, housing over 40 people including turners, wood machinists, cabinet makers, chair makers and polishers as well as administration and support staff.
Our administration team are often the first people to talk to by telephone; they aim to make all callers feel special. This reflects the company philosophy of offering personal service and precisely matching customers requirements with exquisitely made pieces of furniture.
Stewart divides his time between sales, his drawing board and the factory, constantly striving to improve his furniture and delight his customers. He is a Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Furniture Makers.
