Inspired by Scotland’s heritage and dramatic landscape, Shaz and Ali Morton of Mint Croft Skye introduce Forstaris—their new design brand.
Traditional techniques combine with the finest materials to create modern furniture and lighting with a sense of place.
We designed and prototyped the Thorter tables, our inaugural pieces of furniture, in our workshop at Mint Croft in the Isle of Skye. The finished tables are handmade to order by a master cabinet maker in a small family-run workshop in Highland Perthshire.
We work closely with our skilled partners to make quality furniture crafted with pride.
Thorter, Scots: to do something in a criss-cross fashion
The wattle work on a 19th century barn—typical of Lochalsh in the Scottish Highlands—inspired the table.
The apron is handwoven from thin timber strips; the solid timber top has a rounded edge and an angled underside. This piece provides a central focal point in a living room.
