About Us
Founded in 2016, with over 20 years of design experience under our belts, our small family business lovingly creates uniquely designed, high quality laser cut gifts for any occasion.
Our products are designed and made in our small workshop based at home in Leeds, West Yorkshire, using a variety of locally sourced materials. Most of what we make can also be easily personalised to give that extra special touch.
Like most people, we love to travel, so we try to make the most of our down-time. Here we are enjoying a trip to Trogir, Croatia in 2018
As well as visiting our stockists, you can also meet us in person most weekends at one of the many events we attend throughout the year. Here we are enjoying the sun at the Cannonhall Food Festival in August 2019.
Meet the team
Phil Deighton
Managing Director
Hello! I’m Phil, a qualified Graphic Designer who has worked in many design sectors for more than 20 years.
I decided to apply my design background into creating unique and bespoke laser cut gifts after coming across a laser cutter during my brief time as a Design & Technology teacher.
On a social level, having stopped playing football with friends, I have focussed my competitive nature to enjoying a round of golf or three. I stopped travelling the length and breadth of the country following the ups and downs of the 'Mighty Whites', but I am still a big Leeds fan.
Claire Deighton
Retail Manager
Hi, I'm Claire, and I'm the one, who more than likely, will be putting the finishing touches to your order, ensuring it gets to you safely.
In a former life I was the Head of Languages at a couple of local high schools, where I spent 16 years teaching German, honing my organisational skills which I now apply perfectly to my current role in our family business.
I enjoy reading, walking, and foreign travel, and am a proud language geek. Everybody who knows me will also know that I'm mad about cats!
Lucas
Team Motivator
Meow!... I mean, Hello! My name is Lucas, and I have many years of experience motivating the team. Mostly at the crack of dawn so they don't miss breakfast time.
I make sure I'm around for strokes all the time, as I know it's a very important way for me to de-stress. My role can get very demanding, so I need to make sure I don't burnout, so regular naps are scheduled in as a rule.
