Master craftsmen
maintaining old skills

Locker & Riley was founded by Clive Locker and Michael Riley in 1982, after joiner Clive saved 7,000 beautiful woodblock carvings from being destroyed.

He spent two years researching their origins, leading him back to a fibrous plaster company that closed in the 1960s. With Michael as a partner, they revived the business and its skills.

Since then, our master craftsmen have focused on using techniques and production methods passed down through generations to recreate and restore plaster mouldings.
