wooden table. Initially, we drove past
Taylor B’s smaller store and decided to
stop in. We were assisted by Anthony,
who was very friendly and helpful, even
providing water while we were shopping.
He measured everything for us, writing
grey fittings, add to the solidity and
earthiness of each piece. The wood has
been given a new lease of life in these
simple designs and it fits well with our
other furniture.
We love our new furniture, and we
eat every meal outside at our balcony
table. It also makes for a great writing

Having moved to Singapore recently,
we have a large space with covered
balconies. We were after a table
in simple, rustic, reclaimed wood that
could seat eight to ten people. Initially
we were looking at outdoor furniture,
but when we saw the beautiful reclaimed
wooden tables at Woody Antique
House, we decided to get one for the
balcony.
After reading an article on the Expat
Living website, one weekend we popped
in to take a look at Woody’s and left
having chosen not only the dining table
but also three other pieces. The store is
packed with beautiful products, and the
people who served us love what they do.
They took enormous care delivering the
furniture too.
We bought a large sideboard, a
television unit, a dining table and
eight dining chairs. They’re made from
reclaimed Chinese elm in large solid
beams, pieced together in simple,
bold forms. The grain and markings
of the wood, along with the gunmetal
space during the day. Now I have my
eye on two bedside tables and an old,
magical-looking wooden chest. Woody,
we’ll be back!

When we first moved here we had
taken on a part-furnished property,
so we didn’t have a dining table. Now
we were looking for an extendable
down all the necessary details so we
could check the size at home first.
We bought an extendable wooden
table and the fabric-covered chairs
displayed with it. However, they didn’t
have enough in stock so we needed
to order extra; in the interim, to ensure
we had the eight we required, Taylor B
provided an alternative chair in leather
for us to try out. We actually ended up
changing our minds and getting the
leather ones as they looked better in our
home, so they arranged to swap them
over in the delivery.
We are very happy with our purchases,
and we have already returned to both
Taylor B stores to buy more furniture.
We like that they have different, one-off
pieces and we have ended up furnishing
a lot of our home with their furniture!
