Bespoke furniture at Three Chimneys by Angus Ross furniture


Award-winning Perthshire designer and master craftsman Angus Ross is branching out on the Isle of Skye at one of the island’s most iconic restaurants with rooms, Three Chimneys.

Aberfeldy’s Angus Ross was recently selected by the world-renowned Three Chimneys to create a bespoke collection of hand-crafted furniture for its venue on the shores of Loch Dunvegan.

Angus has been transforming local sustainable Scottish wood into exquisite furniture for homes, gardens and public places across the UK for over three decades, including The National Trust, The Athenaeum in London, The Wolds Way, National Trail in Yorkshire and The John Muir Way.

Over the years, Angus’ work has been showcased in some of the world’s most prestigious interior design magazines, including Elle Decoration, Vogue and Homes & Gardens. He also exhibits his work at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, London Design Fair and London Craft Weeks.

Originally from Inverness, Angus studied BSc Industrial design at Edinburgh’s Napier University before working as an industrial designer. After graduating, he specialised in mass-produced designs using plastics, before retraining as a furniture maker over 30 years ago.

As part of its ongoing commitment and respect for the Scottish crafts community, The Three Chimneys has become Angus’ latest high-profile client. In early 2024, Angus was commissioned to create twenty-four individual pieces of bespoke furniture for each of The Three Chimneys’ six guest rooms.

The full collection includes 12 bedside tables, six coffee tables and six drinks cabinets, which are all now safely in place at their new Isle of Skye home.

Each bespoke piece of furniture has been expertly crafted with sustainably sourced Scottish ash and designed to last for decades and possibly even centuries.

Angus Ross "The new furniture I’ve created is contemporary, fresh, crisp, light, subtle and fun. I was inspired by the iconic Three Chimneys and used the tapered chimney pot proportions for the new bedside table design.”

The coffee table design has asymmetrical tapered legs and features a tongue and groove shelf. The natural grain of the ash is proudly displayed on the tabletop and the finely crafted joints are left visible.

Tapered legs are also echoed in the drinks’ cabinet, which is made from solid wood with tongue and groove elements. The natural knots of sustainable non-commercially grown timber are embraced and celebrated.
