Made by grooms,for grooms
Helen says: “We use them at our yard and I realised that people are crying out for good-quality, strong grooming boxes that also look nice in the stables.”
The boxes are hand-made to order and come in a choice of teak, dark oak, deep mahogany and antique pine finishes.
Brush boxes cost £35, trunks boxes are £45 and grooming boxes retail at £100. The trunk and grooming boxes can be locked, making them a safer way to store yard equipment.
