David Lees, an English Master Craftsman was born in the North of England. He served a 6 year apprenticeship and was taught his profession by highly respected British Master Craftsmen. He has been involved in all aspects of high class joinery and carpentry, including creating fine furniture, for over 30 years. After spending a number of years working for a respected joinery company in England, he moved into teaching. David was the head of carpentry and joinery at a college in the North of England where he enjoyed passing on his knowledge to eager students. He has been married to a Canadian for over 30 years and now lives with his family just outside the beautiful city of Victoria, British Columbia. After leaving England in 1996 David and his family achieved their dream of owning their own furniture business in Canada. From his studio in the Highlands he creates elegant Arts & Crafts Style furniture and draws inspiration from the beauty of the pacific coast. David’s pride and passion for working in wood is reflected in his work. Although David has created furniture in other styles, and still does, he has always been drawn to the Arts & Crafts Style due to the clean lines, traditional construction techniques, quality and honesty of design. He is a strong believer in the Arts & Crafts philosophy of creating furniture that will last a lifetime. By closely following this philosophy David is Creating Tomorrows Antiques Today.
