Amazingly, a young couple who are doing up a house in Luton (I think) have recently acquired a piece of Liss Bros furniture that they seem delighted with. It's being used as a shoe cupboard and this picture is from their blog from which you will see that they took the provenance of their new purchase very seriously. 
We've several similar pieces of oak furniture by Liss Bros. The brothers, each craftsmen who had served their cabinet making apprenticeships, lovingly created quality pieces to their own designs. Using only the finest raw materials they produced high quality pieces of furniture. This 'shoe cupboard' comes from a range of practical oak bedroom furniture which mellows to a honey gold. Pieces such as these are turning up in antique shops (see above left) and are fast becoming collectable. 
The couple's work on their house takes me back to the three major house renovations that we have done over the years. Have a look at the wonderful brickwork at the back of their house and the real sash windows!Good luck to them!
