About Cotswold Kigumi

Pip Carr is the craftsman behind Cotswold Kigumi. He creates beautiful, handcrafted pieces from locally sourced wood and loves teaching others to discover the creativity, skill and mindfulness that woodworking inspires.

Kigumi is a traditional Japanese woodworking technique that uses precisely cut wooden joints to interlock pieces without nails or screws. Pip loves Kigumi for the calm attention it requires and the simple elegance in its design.

Alongside his teaching and making, Pip also offers tree surgery and woodland management services, ensuring that his materials - and his craft - remain deeply rooted in respect for nature and the local landscape.
