Chichester Charging Station

Very simply, you just attach your USB charging cables into the port underneath the station (you’ll need to cut a hole into the back of your drawer to feed the mains plug for this through), and then run these up through the cable tidies to your devices, which rest on top.

We’ve recently made a few changes to our charging station to make it even more useable. For instance, we’ve added nylon wheels on ball bearings underneath so the cables run through smoothly, and made these as large as possible so they don’t kink your cables. We’ve also simplified the way the cables connect, added straps underneath to hold excess cable in place, recessed the leather surface so everything is held put, and redesigned the oak base so it’s easier to tilt up and lift out of the drawer.

Oak, because it’ll look more than good in your home (even if it’s hidden away in a drawer). You can expect the odd knot here and the odd change in wood grain there – which means no two pieces will ever look quite the same – but overall, it’s a well-balanced timber.

The oak is protected with IsoGuard®, our timber treatment oil. Think of it as a defence barrier, but one that you’d never know was there. IsoGuard® comes in a few finishes; this one’s Natural Oak, which, as the name suggests, gives the oak a subtle, honey-coloured look.

The tan leather we’ve used on this charging station is made from the strong and durable outer layer of hide. It’s also treated with oils and waxes to highlight the natural creases and colour variations. These are marks of leather’s character, and they’ll only mean that, over time, it’ll look wiser rather than older.
