We want our products to last. It is part of the Blue Swallow Designs philosophy; we hate waste and we hate modern consumerism where items are bought with a limited lifespan or built-in redundancy. They get used, they break or become obsolete and they get dumped. We would very much like to think that our products will last many generations, but they do need some care and maintenance; this page will link into a host of information about timber, our products and how to care for them.
