Made once

One of a kind by nature. When a piece finds its home, it is never repeated, only reimagined.

Made by hand

Cut, poured, painted, and finished by hand in the studio, with each piece checked before it leaves the shop.

Made to keep

Real wood and real weight, finished to live on counters and tables, not in cabinets.

Rea, Ari, Leo, Tommy and Max, the five dogs of Five Dogs Woodworks
The five

The name is not a metaphor.

There really are five, and most of them arrived as rescues. They keep the studio company through painting, pouring, and all the little jobs in between. Work sometimes pauses for a toy, a walk, or a belly rub.

Rea
The Boss · biggest personality by far
Ari
Chief of Fun · happiest, endless energy
Leo
Big Personality · pint-size, huge attitude
Tommy
The Gentle One · soft & sweet
Max
Head of Naps · asleep on the job, always
