[Perth and WA]
Jarrah furniture for Perth homes.
The workshop is about three hours south of Perth. Most Perth clients come down for a weekend in the Margaret River region, sit at the tables in the gallery and choose the timber in person. Delivery and installation within WA are included; Perth is a day trip, and most pieces John delivers himself.
Jarrah is dense, heavy and stable once it is properly dried, which is why it suits a long dining table or a cabinet that will be used every day. Fresh-cut it is a deep red-brown, and over decades it darkens toward a warm chestnut. For how it compares with marri, karri and tuart, read WA hardwoods for furniture; for upkeep, see caring for jarrah furniture.

High quality wood furniture
“I bought an amazing and unique jarrah dining table here which I'm totally thrilled about. It was also reasonably priced. I met John Streater himself at the gallery, and he explained some of his work. It was really nice to meet the actual artist at the workshop. … The quality of the workmanship is definitely the best I've seen in the Margaret River area.”

Wood glorious wood!
“A wonderful stopover on our recent trip in WA, made even more special by receiving a warm welcome by the very John Streater himself! We could not resist purchasing a couple of gifts and a beautifully crafted chopping board made of Jarrah for ourselves.”
★★★★★
A timber artist
“John really is a timber artist and if we return to the area in the future we would love a piece of his work for our own home. For timber lovers this place is a must visit.”
