Broached Goulder Credenza

Description About The Designer Customisations Industry Discount Delivery & Timing

The credenza takes its inspiration from a weaving loom. The top of the four doors represent an integrated shuttle and breast beam. This homage to the arts and crafts movement is layered with a nod to the four Generations of Goulder furniture makers represented via the four panels, covered in woven material (leather or mohair) with apertures revealing various drawers.

The credenza is a playful exercise resulting from research into the various design periods covered by the Goulder family over the decades and the practical time spent by the side of Liz Williamson’s loom, which was used to create the textile art within this furniture collection.

Jon creates highly sensuous design with a strong focus on craftsmanship. Jon has received several design prizes and his work is held in permanent collections by many local state and national museums and art galleries including the National Gallery of Australia and Art Gallery of South Australia.
