On #FathersDay: Not every Dad wants a hunting knife

Mothering sunday is a walk in the park compared to the challenge set before you in Father’s Day.
What do you get Dad..?

He’s already had the greatest gift and that’s being lucky enough to have you in his life, but what else would he like to make it that much better? ‘The World’s Greatest Dad’ mug, nah’ that was okay when you were 9 years old. Slippers, nope that's a Christmas gift. Alcohol, a bottle of his favourite vin rouge, oh’ can't do that either, Mum’s always nagging him about his Type 2 diabetes.

So a hunting knife it is then, this is the gift dad will appreciate? Every dad needs a hunting knife, that and the ‘Bushcraft Skills made easy’ pop-up book by Ray Mears. He can keep it handy in the glovebox of the Honda Jazz and next time Mum sends him on an expedition to Morrisons it will be there at the ready, ready to slice open that challenging packet of Werthers Original (sugar free obviously).


Alright so I’m being a bit flippant, but it’s a tricky business finding something suitable for your Dad.


I have the answer..

Give him some gold! 
Gilboy's Gold

Gilboy’s Gold
 Beeswax Furniture Polishing kit

Made by real, working traditional craftsmen, our pure beeswax furniture polishing kit is the perfect (and useful) Father's Day gift for any dad who would like to preserve the family antique and vintage furniture in the best condition possible.

If your dad really cares about his antiques, 
this is the ideal Father's Day gift

We have very carefully put together a selection of furniture polishing kits that contain the same materials used by our own antique restorers and french polishers in our restoration workshop:







A cube or cubes of pure Buckfast Abbey beeswax filler with a hand gilded bee. Our head restorer designed and developed these stunning wax repair filler sticks or blocks. Gently rub over the surface of a scratch, dent or ding to disguise what once was an unsightly mark. What better Father's Day gift? A face-lift for dad's finest furniture!


We deeply appreciate the gift we have been given by the hard-working bees. We hope you will help us give something back to them by planting and growing these complimentary sweet peas.

*The sweet pea is one of the highest nectar producers in the garden.

And most importantly one, two or three pots of our finest gilboy's gold beeswax furniture polish...
