Union is back in production!

We sold all our pieces at The Boiler Room Exhibition at Shed 8 Wellesley St in Dec last year.
Thanks to all of you who came and saw the work of Union and The Boiler Room Furniture
and now Paula and I are making more........ billiard settees and whiskey chairs with new designs...
Each piece is going to be different and we have a pile of ideas in our heads and hearts that we are drawing on....This is the really enjoyable bit...making and finding the stuff...piles of cloth and colours and drawings.
We will keep you posted.... I think it will be the end of March when we will have new product.
Cheers
guys!
Sue and Paula
