The Safari Storytelling Chair is a hand-carved oak throne packed with wild animals — lion, giraffe, elephant and leopard carved in vivid detail across the backrest and sides, bringing the savannah into any classroom, library or outdoor space. Originally inspired by a school that wanted something completely unlike anything in a catalogue, the Safari Chair has become one of our most talked-about commissions. There is something about sitting in it that makes a story feel urgent and possible — the animals are right there, larger than life, waiting to be part of it. Teachers tell us children queue

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as FREE RANGING DESIGNS LTD, number 09050029. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
