Jeremy Broun - amongst the leaders of the1970s British Furniture Designer-Maker Movement

'Re-defining the boundaries of furniture design' alongside makers such as John Makepeace, Alan Peters, Fred Baier and Rupert Williamson, Jeremy Broun has been a prominent figure in British woodworking since the 1970's and a member of the Crafts Council Index of Selected Makers for three decades. This movement reacted against an unimaginative mass-production industry and hidebound high street furniture, paving the way for the work of today. 

​​Jeremy has been creating innovative designs in wood for over half a century. His story is probably as unique as his furniture creations - being told to 'come back when you're famous' when trying to find a gallery to show his work in the 1970's - early examples are now being sold internationally as vintage collectibles.

Today he balances his time by sharing his vast experience and making music on the guitars he builds.
