Where your kitchen takes shape.

Made to order. Made by hand. Made here.

Every piece of our cabinetry begins in our workshop on the edge of Frome, where skilled cabinetmakers turn considered designs into furniture for everyday life.

The heart of Shaker & May: our own cabinetry workshop in Frome.
An appreciation of the finer details.True luxury lies in the quality of what is made, the integrity of the materials and the precision of the hands that shape them.At Shaker & May, our approach to bespoke cabinetry is rooted in traditional craftsmanship, with every element thoughtfully designed and meticulously handcrafted in our Frome workshop. From the natural grain of solid timber to the intricacy of a dovetail joint, each detail reflects a commitment to creating cabinetry that is as enduring as it is beautiful.These are the details that define a piece beyond its appearance. The quiet expressions of skill, care and considered design that bring depth and character to a kitchen, long after the first impression has been made.Made by hand. Designed to endure.#ShakerAndMay #BespokeKitchens #ExceptionalCraftsmanship #LuxuryInteriors #MadeInBritain
Thoughtful construction, down to the smallest joint.
Materials, skill & attention

The beauty is in how it’s made.

Natural timber, carefully worked proportions and traditional joints give our cabinetry its character. Our cabinetmakers use dovetail and tenon joints throughout, bringing meticulous attention to each piece they create.

Keeping production in our own workshop means we oversee the craftsmanship, quality and finish ourselves. The care behind the finished kitchen is there in its construction, too.
