All Foxton Watch Stands are manufactured from sustainably sourced Solid American Walnut & Oak.
Timeless Elegance
Designer & creators, Jason & Daniel Stebbens explains:“Having previously owned a watch stand, the issue we found is that most available watch stands on the market cannot hold more than 2 watches. Having the ability to rotate various watches became difficult and therefore we designed a watch stand that could hold up 4 watches at Ø42mm. Our partners also needed to store a watch somewhere and the 4 watch stand became the perfect piece. We were conscious about creating a sustainably sourced product and therefore have the whole product including packaging produced within a 30-mile radius of our office in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom”.After 1 year of designing and prototyping, The Foxton Watch Stand was born.
Rugged & Sustainable Packaging
With sustainability in mind, The Foxton Watch Stand is packaged in FSC grade card and paper and biodegradable foam inserts. The packaging has been carefully developed to ensure that each product is safely delivered to each customer.
