Written by the company
The story of Timothy Oulton started back in 1976 with an antiques shop owned by Tim's father. As it turned out, Tim had inherited his father's eye for beauty and detail. His innate ability to see artistic value and the essence of perfection in a product's design became the starting point for everything new. Today, that legacy of creativity continues with Tim's son Oli. "We're not purely a design company per se, it's more than that, it's about the craftsmanship, the materials, the story."

Quality Craftsmanship and Great Customer Experience…
We looked through a number of shops in an attempt to furnish our flat in London. The craftsmanship and quality of the furniture at Timothy Oulton really appealed to us. The service we received from Keelin was exceptional and her guidance and patience helped make the experience one we will fondly remember as we furnish our home. Thank you!

Exceptional service from Keelin…
Exceptional service from Keelin throughout the entire chair selection process. She was thoughtful, patient, and meticulous at every stage—taking detailed measurements, providing helpful renderings, and carefully considering the proportions and requirements of my space. Her guidance made what was proving to be a difficult decision feel clear and well supported. A genuinely high level of service and attention to detail.

It was an excellent, thoroughly enjoyable showroom experience on Kings Rd - I have long admired the story and vision behind Timothy Oulton and it did not disappoint. Rachel was a true brand ambassador - loved hearing about the attributes and aesthetics for each design. Highly recommend.

Beautiful and quirky top notch furniture showroom on Tottenham Court Road
Just visiting the beautiful and quirky showroom on Tottenham Court Road was an absolute delight. The items on show are top notch quality but also fabulous and often unique creative design. The Saddle Chair and Footstool is not just sculpturally impressive, it is wonderfully comfortable. I really hope we end up buying one, as on this visit I just took home a couple of lambskin bolster cushions which convert any straight backed chair or chesterfield into the ultimate in lumbar support!
We had seen a few Timothy Oulton items in Guildford Barker and Stonehouse but it is much more exciting and inspiring to see them in the showroom. Keelin O’Shea was particularly helpful and informative and made us feel like welcome guests rather than ordinary shoppers and sent us images of our prospective purchases in different layouts. I particularly enjoyed being brought a tray of tea in the royal china whilst trying out a particularly comfortable sofa. I’m wondering whether if I visit the bigger showroom in Chelsea, will there be cake ?🤣!

Beautiful showroom
I was very impressed by this beautiful showroom. We were assisted by Sam, who was very knowledgeable, and could answer any questions I had. He was happy to let us wander round, with just the right level of helpfulness. The whole process of ordering was straightforward, despite there being plenty of choices of leather and finishes.

Great Hospitality
Fantastic store with some very interesting and obscure pieces that you wouldn't find in most furniture shops. The staff were fantastic; we were offered drinks while browsing, which made the experience relaxed and enjoyable rather than rushed. The sofa selection was very good and I ended up purchasing one for my new house. I would thoroughly recommend visiting them and can't thank the staff enough.

It was a pleasure dealing with Sam
It was a pleasure dealing with Sam. Even though I’m based in Canada, the whole process was handled very smoothly. He was professional, responsive, and very attentive throughout, making sure everything was taken care of. His communication was clear and thoughtful, and I really appreciated his support. A very positive experience overall, and I would definitely be happy to work with him again.

Where do I start? 5 stars to Chloe!
Where do I start? We were mis-sold a fabric quality by the Timothy Oulton distributor in ANZ, which faded badly within 18 months. We had spent over £8000 on a fabulous new Nest sofa and which now looked like a 15 year-old badly worn piece in a student house! To be fair, we didn't notice the full extent until the sofa was unpacked after a 3 month shipment across the world back to London. On our return to the UK we went to discuss the issue at the TO flagship store in King's Road. The store manager, Chloe, was amazing. She listened fully, she understood the situation quickly, saying that Timothy Oulten would take full responsibility, and would re-cover the sofa at no cost. The original fabric should never have been sold to us, due to the intense sunlight in ANZ, so the fading would always occur. As a result, we were recommended an alternative fabric. It will arrive in 3 months.
So, we are full brand advocates once more! TO need to sharpen up on how they train their international distributors, but for us, the service and customer experience in the King's Road London store was amazing.
5 stars to Chloe!
