Promontory is an open-structured bar & servery, intended as an oasis and a functional sculptural feature for a variety of living environments.
The linear form invokes visions through the scorched bushland on the hiking trails leading to and from the lighthouse at Wilsons Promontory's South East point, and references the convict labour that helped to build the lighthouse and nearby buildings.
Timbers for this piece have been sourced from the neighbouring Gippsland region, also from Tasmania as it is seemingly close, across the Bass Strait.
The granite references the great stone monoliths that speckle the landscape.
The blue leather is a taste of the deep sea hugging the coastline.
The blued steel references the overseers of the convict labourers and also the long disused telegraph poles that once carried communications between the lighthouse and the local township.
Materials:
- Gippsland Ash & Blackwood
- Tasmanian Blackwood & Celery Top Pine
- Granite, Mild Steel, Leather
- Soft-close concealed drawer runners
Dimensions:
- H1800 x W700 x D500 mm
Finish:
- Satin hardwax oil
Custom design variations, timbers, and finishes available on consultation.

Julian took a treasured heirloom and made it better than the original table. He took the time to work through what we thought we wanted, making suggestions that resulted in the finished result being more than we had hoped to achieve.
Reduce Length and Refinish Table ~ June 2022
Very happy we found Julian + Glencross to design and construct a daybed for our living room. Excellent communicator, attention to detail. Couldn't be happier with final product. Would use again, highly recommended!

Incredible craftsmanship from Julian @ Glencross. We're thrilled with our piece. It was worth the wait.
Console ~ November 2021
Julian was fantastic to work with, he was very responsive to queries and really took the time to understand what it was we needed. He was able to help take our original brief and make it into something exceptional by bringing ideas and examples that really enhanced the finished item. His workmanship is top-notch and we are extremely happy with the finished item, it looks great!
Console Table ~ January 2021
Julian @ Glencross was an absolute pleasure to work with, bringing my wife and I into the creative process to ensure we loved the end result (which we do!) and investing a lot of care and attention along the way.
I highly recommend for any custom project and will reach out to Glencross again when we have the opportunity to place a custom piece of furniture into our home. Thanks again!
