While there is a website under the name of smallbone, they have a wide
variety of styles of which some may have aspects of "smallbone" but
they don't specify which aspects of which jobs are that style. I'm
trying to get a little more specific than a company named "smallbone".

Geez, who would've thought to look there?

You might ask your design specifiers to be a little more specific.

Smallbone was a phenomenon of the 1980's that reintroduced the concept
of traditional joinery and painted finishes to the kitchen.

That would be my concept of "smallbone".

It was a response to the eurobox, as presented by Poggenpohol and its
variants, during that time.

It has now achieved the status of redundant anachronism.
