He works in solid and veneered woods to access the widest range of this wonderful natural material. The website contains a number of galleries - the " Hardwood boxes " gallery shows boxes made from a wide range of materials; the " Scottish boxes " gallery displays examples of boxes made almost entirely from Scottish hardwoods that are sourced locally mainly in Fife; the " Chart boxes & trays " gallery reflects Digby's love of sailing translated into box or tray form inlaid with charts of Scotland; the " Bespoke Furniture " gallery displays examples of his furniture pieces.

 

He always has a number of boxes available but is happy to make to commission - anything from a variant of a standard box to a completely bespoke design. It is likely that he will also be making an item of bespoke furniture, often under commission.

 

The boxes have many uses - jewellery, christening, collection, games e.g. bridge, keepsake, presentation etc... They can be a gift for someone special or simply a treat for yourself. Digby's furniture pieces are designed to be "one-offs" with unique features. They best suit clients who want something different or who have a specific requirement (spatial, style, function etc).
