Lacewood furniture was established in 1993 by Brisbane furniture maker and designer Mark Mills. My aim has always been to create handmade furniture pieces that reflect my own personal taste. Each piece has to have that special 'handmade' quality that I hope everyone (even those not particularly interested in furniture design) can see, feel and appreciate.
Sometimes it's the interesting exposed joinery or simply the choice of timber grain, the pieces are all designed to be quite special in their own way and I hope offer a daily touch of inspiration & enjoyment to the owner. In a world full of disposable things, these pieces are truly designed and made to last a lifetime.

Rosewood is a medium density hardwood that grows across South-East Asia. The heartwood varies from a lovely rich golden brown through to a rich deep red, although we generally only feature the red tones on request. The figured grain in Rosewood is particularly attractive, frequently including swirls, fiddleback, burrs and more.

Have just had my Art Nouveau Tulip silky oak wood bed delivered and it is absolutely beautiful. The craftmanship is stunning and it makes me happy in my heart to have such a beautiful piece of furniture. The bed is easy to assemble and very strong (I was worried it might be rickety - not at all - it is very sturdy - so well designed). It truly is just beautiful. Mark was lovely too - easy to speak to to discuss styles and availability, and kept me up to date with the progress of the bed's construction and delivery. I adore the bed, am so glad I found his website and would recommend him without

It was a pleasure dealing with Mark from Lacewood Furniture. He is a true craftsman and created the most beautiful dining table for us. It was a pleasure dealing with an artisan who knows his craft and takes so much pride in his work. We now have a dining table that will be passed down the generations.

Mark Mills is a master craftsman. He made a silky oak wardrobe and a chest of drawers for us 10 years ago, and just recently a matching king size bed frame - the Art Noveau - Tulip (with hidden foot). It is simply stunning with exquisite hand carved patterns. The quality of his work is the best I have ever seen. Highly recommended.

Working with Mark from Lacewood Furniture to design the TV cabinet / book case for my home was an incredibly positive experience. The outcome was truly remarkable! Mark is professional and a very capable crafts person. His work is meticulous. It is clear he is passionate about what he does. I would strongly recommend anyone looking for that special furniture piece for it to be handcrafted by Mark.

We bought four pieces of Lacewood bedroom furniture about 20 years ago and they look as good today as when we bought them. That has to be attributed to the fact that they were created by someone (namely Mark Mills) who valued quality over quantity. One only has to look at the detail of the construction to understand why the pieces have stood up so well. Mark also provided great personal service, coming to our home to change the dresser hardware to match the existing bedside tables. We will be leaving the furniture to one of our grandchildren and we are sure that they will be appreciated for at
