Timeless, Sustainable
Home Decor, Kitchen and Tableware

My products fall into 3 general categories:

• Luxury Statement Pieces

• Signature Small Batch Collection

• One of a Kind Creations

My “luxury statement pieces” items are those intentionally created as unique and one of a kind; they are not able to be reproduced or recreated. The reason may be the characteristics of the wood can’t be reproduced, the item form / shape can’t be reproduced and/or it’s an item created with intension to be the only one of it’s kind. Some of the items in this collection include: The Egg & The Comet Collection and many of my more unique vases.

Signature Small Batch Collection these are items that are often created in small batch quantities. They are a standard item in my product line and will be recreated for purchase / re purchase again and again. Although the wood will look different (as all wood is unique in it’s markings) the product look, feel and pattern will remain the same, although I may change up small details in these products to keep the items fresh and current. Just a few of the products we have in this line are: Plant propagators, salad tongs, chopsticks and the GHW Logo Merch.

One of a Kind Creations are items I have personally created & can be replicated. These are items like basic shape vases and bowls. The form itself is replicatable, I simply have not made multiples at this time.

These are items that can be ordered and custom made if they are out of stock or be created in “multiples” for special occasions like weddings & other events.

"Live Edge" refers to the natural, irregular edge just below and possibly including the bark, capturing the essence of the living tree.

Identifiable by its unique and organic appearance, maintaining the live edge, especially with bark, demands a high level of skill and understanding of wood and harvesting processes. This craftsmanship contributes to the distinct character of each piece. It's essential to note that the inclusion of a live edge, with its intricate details and added complexity in handling, often results in a higher product price.

I take pride in preserving the authentic beauty of each live edge creation, showcasing the raw, natural charm of the wood.

All my handcrafted products are made by Doug in his Northern New Jersey studio, proudly 100% made in the USA.

Located in New Jersey, I proudly use sustainably reclamimed wood material for ~95% of my handcrafted products.

The primary wood types—maple, oak, cherry, and walnut—are all native to the New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland region.

Ensuring sustainability is a priority, 95% of the wood is responsibly and sustainably acquired, from trees naturally downed in storms or removed for safety reasons.

This commitment not only supports the local ecosystem but also contributes to the unique character of each piece. Feel good about your purchase—knowing it's not just a beautiful creation but one rooted in responsible, eco-friendly practices.
