We hope to see you later this year

You can once again find us at major handcrafted shows. We've cut back to only the best and biggest shows, but you can always visit us at our studio in Niagara-on-the-Lake

check out our 2024 Show Schedule

Barrel Stave Bowls

Choose from a variety of food-safe bowls for display or serving food

Forest Finds

Made from rare Niagara region fruitwoods like plum (pictured), peach, pear and cherry. These woods are seldom used because they are so difficult to source. We go right into the orchards as the trees are removed to salvage the wood.

Barrel Stave Candelabras

Made from rescued used Niagara wine barrels

Barrel-Top platters

Choose from half-top serving platters with handles (pictured) or full barrel top trays with lazy susan

Plum Slabs Now Available!

Plum Slabs you can't find anywhere else!

You can now buy unfinished live-edge plum slabs for your own projects. We have a large selection of 10/4 slabs that have been vacuum-kiln dried to minimize cracking and twisting.

Each slab is incredibly unique, so you really have to come to our studio to pick out your favourite.

All are bark-on, and because each tree only gives up three or four slabs, the edges are angled and the two sides look quite different.

Suitable for small tables, charcuterie boards or other projects.

Pricing is $20 per board foot.
