THE WARM EMBRACE — FROM £2,850

A warm embrace without the awkward small talk.

Or the need to ask, “So… what are we?”

The Warm Embrace is a generous U-shaped outdoor seating setup built to wrap itself around you, your friends, your drinks and approximately eight to ten consenting adults who’ve apparently all decided to get very cosy.

At the centre sits a substantial table.

At the back, beneath the seating, sits a mini log burner.

So yes — it’s warm underneath.

Very warm, if you’ve got it going properly.

WHAT YOU’RE GETTING

  • Large U-shaped timber seating area

  • Central table

  • Seating for approximately 8–10 adults

  • Mini log burner beneath the centre rear seating

  • Insulated, ventilated and fire-resistant burner enclosure

  • Handmade chunky treated timber construction

  • A socially questionable amount of room for everyone to get very comfortable

It’s designed to make people sit closer, stay longer and suddenly decide that going back inside can wait.

APPROXIMATE DIMENSIONS

Overall width: 300 cm
Overall depth: 240 cm
Overall height: 100 cm
Seat height: 45 cm
Seat depth: approximately 50 cm
Central table: approximately 120 × 70 cm

Three metres wide.

Deep enough to settle into.

Plenty of seating around the edges.

And a big solid table right in the middle.

Honestly, it’s doing most of the work for us.

THE HOT BIT

The mini log burner is built beneath the centre of the rear seating section inside an insulated, ventilated and fire-resistant housing.

Hot underneath.

Protected where it matters.

And positioned right in the middle so nobody has to complain that someone else is getting all the warmth.

We believe in fairness.

Especially in group situations.

WHERE IT WORKS

Perfect for:

  • Gardens

  • Glamping sites

  • Holiday accommodation

  • Pubs

  • Hospitality venues

  • Anyone who refuses to let a cold Welsh evening kill the mood

Built from chunky treated timber, with natural grain, knots and character left proudly on show.

Some bits are smoother.

Some bits are rougher.

Some have more knots than you were expecting.

That’s the joy of real wood.

MADE TO ORDER

Each Warm Embrace is individually handmade.

Approximate lead time: 4–6 weeks.

Long enough to build anticipation.

Not long enough to start looking elsewhere.

PRICE

From £2,850

Delivery, foundations and final stove-and-flue installation are quoted separately according to site and access.

Want it longer?

Deeper?

Darker?

More protected?

A little tighter around the edges?

We’re very happy to discuss your preferences.

MADE WOOD LOVE

Handmade. One-off. Built around real life.

The Warm Embrace.

Big enough for ten.

Hot underneath.

Plenty of room to wrap around everyone.

And considerably less complicated than an actual group hug.

Come closer. Stay warmer.

Delivery

UK delivery is included in the price.

If you’re in North Wales, we’ll usually bring it to you ourselves. Further afield, we’ll arrange the best way of getting it to you safely — pallet, courier, van, or whatever makes most sense for the piece.

Some of the larger and more gloriously awkward creations may need a little extra organising, particularly if you’re a long way from us, but we’ll sort that with you directly.

Collection is always welcome too.

At the moment, we deliver within the UK only.

Sizes, materials and framing

Print sizes: A4 is 21 × 29.7 cm, A3 is 29.7 × 42 cm, A2 is 42 × 59.4 cm and A1 is 59.4 × 84.1 cm. Prints are produced on heavyweight art paper and signed, titled and numbered in pencil.

Framed prints are mounted, so the finished frame is larger than the print size. Frames are available in gold, light wood or dark wood on most designs; ask if you need exact external dimensions for a particular spot.

Glassware is painted by hand and kiln-fired. Hand wash to keep it looking its best.

Delivery and returns

Delivery: standard tracked UK delivery is free on everything in the art shop. An express option is available at checkout. We currently ship within the UK only; get in touch if you're overseas and we'll see what we can do.

Dispatch: prints and in-stock glass leave the studio within a few working days. Made-to-order glass, pet portraits and originals take longer, and we'll confirm a date with you.

Returns: stock items can be returned within 30 days. Personalised and commissioned pieces can't be returned for a change of mind, but anything faulty or damaged in transit will be replaced or refunded. Full details in our returns policy.
