Gardenfurniture makerexhibitingat CorkDesignFair

A Wexford furniture making company will be exhibiting their new range of garden architecture including birdhouses, birdfeeders and seating at the 25th City Hall Crafts and Design Fair in Cork this weekend.

Tommy Kelly of Bevel Furniture in Fethard-on-Sea has been creating bespoke, freestanding hardwood furniture for more than 25 years. Most pieces are custom-designed and built individually for each client with the care and dedication that has brought him a second generation of clients. Working mainly in oak, sycamore, cherry and walnut, this solid furniture has the honesty and integrity of proper cabinetmakers.

Now Tommy has introduced a range of garden architecture including birdhouses, birdfeeders and seating, all made from timbers suited to our Irish weather.

Four years ago, craftsman Tommy started the Bevel Woodworking School to share his 35 years of experience, and help create the next generation of top class craftsmen.

This year’s 25th anniversary fair takes place from Thursday to Sunday and promises to be a bumper celebration of an event that traditionally heralds the start of the Christmas season in Cork.

Over €150,000 per day will be spent at the biggest crafts fair outside Dublin, which will feature more than 60 of the best contemporary crafts and artisan food producers from all over Ireland.

Fairgoers in search of an original Christmas idea can be guaranteed a haven of quality wares both for gifts and the home this festival season.
