Simon Thomas Pirie is based in Dorchester, South West
Simon Pirie initially trained as a sculptor, then went on to Hooke Park College, part of John Makepeace’s Parnham Trust. He and his small team of makers produce a huge variety of projects; from dining sets, to ceremonial maces, to complete kitchen interiors and public seating. The business remains small by choice, avoiding mass production and utilsing native timber.
