This is just a small sample of our work. Some of these pieces were sold a long time ago, some are ours, some are for sale at this very moment. All of them are different and very special to us. A new section "shop" showing prices and availability will be ready soon. In the meantime, if you like what you see but you don't see what you want (e.g. different wood, bigger, smaller etc.,) please contact us and we'll happily consider any commisions. We can make almost anything in wood!
