Timeless style today - antiques of the future.
Webber Furniture was founded in 1919 by Mr. David Frank Webber, whose priority was to produce furniture of such a high quality that all his customers would appreciate and be proud to own. Ninety-eight years on, the family business continues to manufacture furniture with the same exacting standards. His youngest son David is now Chairman with his Grandson Alan, Managing Director, and third generation to continue the excellent reputation and family legacy. The company was originally based in Croydon, South London, from 1919 until 2005, occupying various factories in the area. During the war years, furniture production ground to a halt and the factory worked on many different projects for the Ministry of Defence to aid in the war effort. Webber Furniture made the moulds for the Mulberry Harbours used in the D-Day landings, bomb casings, and ammunition boxes. The factory was close to Biggin Hill, Kenley, and Croydon airports and had its share of near misses throughout the war. These experiences had a profound effect on David F. Webber, and to commemorate the Battle of Britain, he produced 22 handcrafted plaques, most of which remain in the family possession. However, one is proudly displayed at Kenley church where many of the Battle of Britain pilots are buried. Another is displayed at the chapel at Biggin Hill (formerly the Officers' Mess), this particular plaque was unveiled by Sir Winston Churchill. After the war, one was presented to an American Eagle squadron at their request. Some of the very first TV cabinets were produced by Webber Furniture, and one was even purchased by Logie Baird!
