ARCHIVE: Jameson Whiskey

The Whiskey Drinking Collection, the culmination of a three month collaboration with The Jameson Works.

Whiskey Drinker's End Table

We set ourselves the challenge to develop a new range of furniture that reimagined a bar space and extended the whiskey drinking experience.

Working together with Jameson we were able to experiment with some new techniques and develop new skills into our workshop. Our visits to the impressive Jameson distillery in Midleton gave us great inspiration to bring in new materials and develop handcrafted copper vessels as a functional addition to the collection.

The project culminated with the installation of the collection at The Reverend JW Simpson in Goodge St, London with some brilliant Jameson cocktails developed especially for us.
