More room for chopping, carving and, importantly, a longer message.

This is our larger 500mm solid-oak chopping board, engraved with “Love, Laughter & Leftovers”. Made to order and personalised for its future home.

Another personalised oak w**e rack reaching the finishing stage.

A coat of Osmo Oil protects the oak and brings the grain properly to life. Then it will be checked, packed and sent on its way.

“Drinks Well With Others” feels particularly appropriate.

A simple way to give children’s artwork, photos and everyday notes a proper place.

The oak Gravity Bar grips paper with the concealed mechanism inside the rail. Slide something in, and it stays put; lift it out whenever you want to change the display.

The second photo shows finished bars packed and ready to leave the workshop.

Coffee, something sweet and absolutely no intention of sharing.

Our solid-oak trays are made individually and can be personalised with wording that suits the recipient, however honest that wording may be.

A proper look from every angle.

Made from solid oak, personalised to order and built to be used, not simply admired. Our chopping boards can be engraved with names, dates or a message of your choice.

Before the first coat of Osmo Oil goes on.

This personalised oak cheeseboard has been engraved and sanded, but the finish is what really brings out the colour and character of the oak.

A little glimpse of what happens in the workshop before the finished board reaches its new home.

Three boards, three messages, two languages.

These personalised oak cheeseboards were part of last week’s batch, finished and ready to be packed for their new homes.

The inscription on the middle board is Albanian, a lovely example of just how personal these orders can become. If you want wording in another language, send it exactly as you would like it to appear. We prepare the artwork and email it to you for approval before engraving begins.

Different messages, but every board receives the same careful shaping, engraving, sanding and finishing.

W**e, a candle, something worth watching and absolutely no intention of getting out of the bath yet.

Our solid oak bath bridge is made to order with space for the things that turn a quick soak into proper time out. Choose the features you want and add a personal message for a gift that feels genuinely considered.

This is the Gravity Bar, a simple way to display children’s artwork, photographs, postcards and notes without pins, magnets or individual frames.

Slide the paper into the oak rail and the metal balls inside grip it securely. Gently lift the item when you want to change the display.

It turns the things that usually cover the fridge or disappear into a drawer into a display you can update whenever you like. Each one can also be personalised.

A chopping board should earn its place in the kitchen.

Our personalised oak carving board is weighty, practical and made to be used, from everyday food preparation to the Sunday roast. Add a family name, date, house name or message and it becomes a board that belongs to your kitchen alone.

Solid oak, available in three sizes, with optional juice groove and our signature contrasting detail.
