Replacing the dark, old-fashioned kitchen in a late Victorian semi started with a visit to the Cirencester showroom — and it was love at first sight with the walnut-stained dairy table.

Design & Layout

The kitchen was opened up from a dark, closed-off room into the bright, sociable space it is today. Four separate cabinetry runs line the walls — an alcove run, a range run built around a bespoke mantle made on site, a sideboard run, and a dedicated sink run — with a freestanding walnut-stained dairy table at the centre, used as the main prep space.

 

As with every Shaker Wholesale kitchen, the quality sits in the details: oak veneer internals, brass hinges throughout, and full in-frame construction. It’s the kind of quality people notice — the builder on site remarked on how good the units were.

Colour & Finish

The cabinetry is colour matched to Farrow & Ball, Hay No. 37, paired with brass hinges and hardware throughout. The dairy table stands apart in a warm walnut stain — a deliberate contrast to the painted perimeter that gives the prep space its own identity within the room.

Investment Breakdown

Fully in-frame Shaker cabinetry across alcove, range, sideboard and sink runs, oak veneer internals, brass hinges, bespoke mantle built on site with matching mantle shelf and corniceTransparency matters. Here is how this kitchen was structured financially.

We chose Shaker on the basis of reviews reflecting quality and value and certainly weren’t disappointed. We were particularly impressed with the quality of workmanship, materials and overall finish, which are excellent. It looks and ‘feels’ like a kitchen that costs far more, and we’re delighted with the finished product.
