My company, Focus Publishing,
recently commissioned Peter Bishop to produce
a range of quality wooden furniture for a book
we were producing on the subject. The results
were superb. The furniture is elegant yet functional
and hard-wearing at the same time. I wholeheartedly
recommend Peter and his company for any kind of
furniture commission
