Richard Lloyd is a skilled craftsman; a kitchen and cabinet maker who lives in Norfolk with his wife, two children and their Sprocker Spaniel, Brody. From a very young age, Richard knew what he wanted to do and that his future held the joy and craftsmanship of bespoke carpentry and furniture making. On leaving school, Richard was accepted onto a furniture-making course and qualified with NVQs Level 2 and 3 at college. Whilst learning his craft, Richard was keen to gain as much experience as possible and so worked part-time at a local cabinet-maker’s alongside his studies, and later furthered his skills as an apprentice at a high-end kitchen manufacturer. Working across all of Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and London, Richard truly loves what he does and has since gained 25 years of specialist experience in cabinet and furniture making, and now works from his very own company’s artisanal workshop in North Norfolk - Cherry Tree Bespoke. A keen problem-solver by nature, Richard likes to work with those awkward spaces in our homes that are difficult to fill and to find a worthy purpose for; with a meticulous eye for detail, he enjoys making something of their character, turning them into a space that is both functional and beautiful. The workshop is one of Richard’s happy places, a creative workspace filled with traditional techniques, the highest-quality materials and innovation too. By continuously perfecting his craft, he works to enrich the spaces he creates each piece for, along with the everyday lives of the families that live within them.
