Timber is our great love, and reclaimed wood with historic value is our passion. Rustic beams, joists, floorboards, selected hardwoods and historic gems have been stockpiled in order for us to be able to create a multitude of design criteria. These can be miraculously transformed in our machine shop into beautiful, smooth timbers.

Five years ago Real Wood Mirrors secured a hundred thousand linear foot of various joists and floorboards from the site of the Royal Arsenal Woolwich. The redevelopers of part of this historic site, Berkley Homes, were unable to accommodate these timbers within their criteria, and after being signed out by the British Heritage Society we were lucky enough to purchase this consignment.

Our current range of mirrors are constructed from this 287 year old wood.
