General FAQs:
Where are your items crafted?
All of my items are handcrafted in my studio in SE Georgia, USA.
Absolutely! Each item is carefully thought out and designed. Woods are selected and matched to accentuate the natural grain patterns. I use minimal power tools, and never use computer driven "set and forget" shaping machines. The result is an artisan quality product that is unique and heirloom quality.
How do I care for my product? Unless specified, all of my products are finished with a non toxic, natural based finish, that looks great with a gentle wiping of a slightly damp cloth. Most products require little care to keep looking great. Desk Sets and Pen Holders just need a light dusting now and then. If you have ordered a Cutting or Slicing Board, you will receive a set of Care Instructions with your package.
Can I order a custom product? You sure can! I enjoy making custom orders, turning someones dream into tangible reality. Contact me to discuss your vision!
Purchasing FAQs:
What type of payments do you accept?
We accept Credit Card payments through Stripe, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Will I receive the exact item I saw in the pictures?
The
item you purchase will be the one you receive. Each design is produced
individually, so no two will be exactly alike. Differences in wood
species and grain patterns ensure that what you purchase
will be truly unique. Please note that differences in computer and phone displays may cause the colors to appear slightly different than in real life. I photograph my products to provide the most realistic color representation.
Shipping FAQs:

About Me
If you are looking for a unique item inspired by the beauty of the natural world, you have come to the right place! The Universe around us contains infinite variety, and amazing beauty that is both obvious and subtle. I concentrate on accentuating and displaying this beauty, working primarily in wood, stone, and crystal. I allow the natural energies and patterns contained within to express themselves in new and unusual designs and ways, creating items that are unique, beautiful, and functional.
I believe in quality and a "hands on" creation process, so all of my products are individually handcrafted by me, one at a time, in my studio workshop. My items are made using solid woods, sustainably sourced, and carefully selected for individuality and beauty. I don't use plywood, pressed cardboard (pressboard), or other cheap materials so commonly found in "big box" stores and large online retailers. Wood is shaped with hand held tools, never computer controlled "set and forget" machines. I read the grain patterns to bring out the natural beauty, hand sand each piece, and even crush my own gemstones for inlay material. Finishes are natural based Beeswax, Linseed or Lacquer, with a final hand rub. The end result is a handcrafted artisanal item, individually made, with "Old World" craftsmanship and quality that is rare in these modern times. Each product is made with careful focus and intent. Made to last for years and longer. An item you can be proud to call your own.
If you ever have an issue or question about one of my products, feel
free to reach out. I take pride in each creation, and will strive to
make things right.
