Tom Raffield Ltd designs and makes a range of contemporary furniture and lighting that represents their beliefs, promotes good design and champions the materials they love. Every piece is hand-made by a skilled set of craftsmen in a woodland workshop in Cornwall, England, and individually finished.

“We believe in sustainability and want to be the solution to the throw-away culture that is omni-present in many of our lives,” says the brand’s eponymous founder. “We utilise the traditional craft of steam-bending wood to create pieces that will become harmonious in the spaces of their owners for years to come.”

The Skipper pendant is hand-made from petals of sustainably sourced ash, oak or walnut. Its minimalistic design will suit those who like simple shapes but do not wish to compromise on quality design.
