Handmade Objects with Presence.

ABOUT OAK & IRON

I make handcrafted items out of solid materials. Quality belongings that will last a lifetime and look great while doing so. The kind of item that commands attention, be it through its design, its function, or the weight of its materials.

My items include unique furniture, knives, bowls, tools and more. I use wood, steel, concrete, leather, and other durable materials with similar simple beauty. Take a look below for a sample of previous work.

I am happy to try to fill almost any custom order, and can work with you to design to your needs. If there is something you want, we can make it.
