The journey begins long before the workshop. Selecting the right tree is an art itself — only mature, ethically sourced wood with distinctive grain patterns is chosen.

Once cut, the slabs rest for months, sometimes years, allowing nature to complete the drying process. This ensures strength, stability, and a rich patina that only time can create.

In the workshop, the wood is shaped, sanded, and treated by hand. Each surface is touched dozens of times, ensuring it feels as good as it looks. The result: a piece that connects craftsmanship, sustainability, and the soul of the forest.
