Even as a small boy Chris Sharp was passionate about wood, every
available minute was spent in his fathers furniture workshop carving
and joining small pieces of wood to make miniature boats that
wouldnt stay upright, model planes that crashed and other treasured
boyish projects.
In 1975 the young Chris didnt think twice when father Pat Sharp
(artist and furniture designer/maker) offered him a five year
apprenticeship. In these early years vocation turned to passion and
skills in design and craft were nurtured, the following five years
were spent gaining more knowledge and technique with other
furniture, kitchen and joinery manufacturers.
Chris sharp cabinets ltd was started in 1986 with the support and
advice of Chriss parents. From the very beginning design, sound
construction, attention to detail, quality materials, and
