About Twisted Eye – Handmade Hardwood Furniture with Bold Design and Colour
WHO WE ARE
We are furniture studio that makes bold, characterful solid wood pieces. Our designs bring personality, joy, and versatility to interiors, blending traditional techniques with playful, unexpected details.
Each piece is handmade to be timeless, functional, and entirely one-of-a-kind.
WHAT WE DO
While staying true to our core values of craftsmanship, durability, and sustainability we love experimenting with design, proportions, materials, colours, and finishes to create furniture with a bit of attitude.
Vibrant rustic
WHAT WE MAKE
Twisted Eye's first collection, Vibrant Rustic, launched in Spring 2025.
This collection mixes elegance with personality, playful shapes, unique finishes, and a bold take on country style. Whether your space leans modern, vintage, or somewhere in between, it holds its own.
WHY WE STARTED
Twisted Eye's founder Sharon Bennett began the leap from TV production to furniture making in 2020, after a period of personal loss and professional upheaval during the pandemic.
What started as a way to sharpen her ‘shed-taught’ skills and tackle some long-overdue DIY quickly turned into an obsession. She signed up for a furniture making qualification and, over two years, juggled workshops and edit suites as she retrained.
Then she went 'all in', setting up her own workshop in Gloucestershire and taking on bespoke commissions and restorations. A couple of years of designing, experimenting, and prototyping later, Twisted Eye was born, bringing its joyful, characterful twist to solid hardwood furniture.
Where Next?
The team is focused on expanding the Twisted Eye brand, bringing more playful, unexpected furniture that stays true to the ethos of quality, sustainablity and craftsmanship.
We're already hard at work on the next wave of designs, with new pieces and prototypes in the mix.
There’s plenty more to come, so watch this space!
