work in progress - Peter Henderson Furniture

The latest progress on the 1950’s kitchen. The angled cabinet is still awaiting reeded glass sliding doors, which have been sent off for toughening. Aside from this, everything is ready to go for the installation after the holidays. Happy Christmas!

nearly finished…this kitchen has solid painted hardwood doors with raised-and-fielded panels. This is in a new extension to a country cottage in Ifield. The builders are still working on it as I am fitting the kitchen.

Just finished the installation a couple of weeks ago, and waiting for the floor to be tiled before taking official photos.
