Here at Ashdown Wood we make a range of handcrafted wooden items such as bowls, vases, indoor and outdoor furniture and much more using traditional techniques including carving and turning. All the wood we use is either reclaimed, sawmill off-cuts or green wood from the area. We work closely with local businesses, recycling initiatives and tree surgeons in our community who share our ethos and help us source the best quality wood. All of our wooden items are one-offs that are hand-finished with beeswax oil, an entirely natural, environmentally friendly and food-safe alternative to varnishes and other oils. Our main objective is to showcase beautiful pieces of wood that would otherwise go to waste, and work in sync with our local and natural environment using the best practices possible.
