Ian Laval has been designing and making furniture since 1970. He uses only domestic timbers, with which he has been intimately associated for many years, felling and sawing all his own wood during a 29-year career in England. He is now established at Brentwood Bay.
His original designs lean on time-proven forms and proportions which he uses to display attractive veneers sawn in the workshop from burrs, crotches and other interesting features found in native trees.
Visitors are welcomed by appointment (250-882-4720 or e-mail ian@ianlaval.com) at Ian Laval's workshop in Brentwood Bay in the Saanich Peninsula.
A selection of furniture is normally available for sale and Ian Laval is happy to discuss commissions.
