Along with his work as a television personality, Osborne is the founder of the famous Uk furniture brand, Hatchet and Bear

After studying Arboriculture with the Royal Forestry Society and Product & Furniture Design at University, Osborne began to focus on crafts to promote British culture and heritage.

Most famous for working with storm-damaged trees and other discarded materials, Osborne used simple and traditional methods to make his furniture. This perhaps prompted his interest in the BBC upcycling program "Money For Nothing."

Osborne was also the author of the "Hatchet and Bear Spoon Carving" book. Additionally, he served as a public speaker, often giving speeches about craft making and its importance.

When he was not doing any of these, Osborne enjoyed walking in the woods with his dog. His death marks the latest addition to celebrities and public figures who have lost their lives this year. Although they are gone, their legacies transcend time.
