Remember …. the beauty of solid wood is an expression of nature. It is not engineered, it is not synthetic, its beauty is not just skin deep.  Just as every tree is a little different from the next, every wood crafted item is one of a kind. Those of us who appreciate solid wood know that the grain detail, size of knots and even colour will vary. They are not defects but enhance the warmth and beauty of a wood item. Solid woods are a natural fibre. Over the years, each piece ages and mellows taking on a warmer and deeper appearance. We acknowledge that nature's input cannot be copied, which creates a wood product as unique as the person it has been crafted for
