About Selbrae House
Selbrae House is a family-run business in Fife, Scotland. Founded in 2006 as The Just Slate Company by Donny Carstairs, the business is run with the support of his siblings, Colin and Emma, together with their parents Louise and Ian. It is Emma's initial sketches that are transformed to the finished homeware products through the careful production oversight by Colin, with Donny steering the business through the entire process.
Why did Selbrae House change their name from The Just Slate Company?
Selbrae House changed its name from The Just Slate Company to better reflect the wider range of products and to highlight their Scottish heritage. Originally starting with only slate products, the range has now expanded to include items made from sustainable Scottish oak, olive wood, and linen. The rebrand was also intended to communicate their dedication to contemporary style and natural character.
What materials do Selbrae House now use?
Selbrae House now uses a variety of natural materials. Slate, oak, stainless steel, linen and olive wood all feature, chosen for durability, sustainability and beauty.
Gift ranges
Selbrae House has a wide range of tableware and glassware created for personal use or to give as gifts. Key to the products in the range is the theme that they create time spent together with friends and family. In their words “We are proud of the part our products play in helping enrich these moments and creating memories.”
Serveware
Choose from a number of cheese boards, serving paddles and trays - even decorative chopping boards - that make beautiful centerpieces to present food. Made from oak or slate and engraved with insect and animal illustrations including bees, kissing hares, rams and even a leopard. Sets of knives and spoons make lovely accompaniments to the display. Great for housewarming gifts or for a couple on their wedding or anniversary.
Glasses & Barware
Beautifully etched glasses, bottle stoppers, wine pourers and whisky stones, decorated with Scottish emblems including the highland cow, stag head and hare all make lovely presents for friends and family. Luxury gift sets featuring a mix of these items are good for Fathers Day presents too.
Slate Coasters & Placemats
A diverse range of illustrated coasters and table mats make lovely new home gifts. With etched animals varying from lobsters to zebras there is something to cater for all tastes.
Gifts for Couples
Selbrae House’s Love & Celebrate serving boards, heart shaped silver bottle stoppers and coasters and illustrated Kissing Hares items (we love the butter dish!) make thoughtful gifts for partners on Valentine’s Day or couples for weddings or anniversaries.
