Reaching five years of marriage is no small feat. The "honeymoon phase" has settled into something deeper, more comfortable, and infinitely more real.
It is a milestone that deserves more than a card picked up at the last minute.
Traditionally, the fifth anniversary is celebrated with wood. It is a fitting symbol. By the fifth year, a marriage has begun to grow deep roots. Like a tree, it has weathered a few storms, grown stronger, and established a resilience that the earlier years were just building toward.
Solid, Stable, and Grounded
When I designed our new Personalised Solid Oak Cube, I wanted to capture that feeling of stability.
Unlike a bouquet that fades or chocolates that disappear, this is a piece with weight. It is substantial. When you hold it, you can feel the density of the English Oak—it is warm, tactile, and undeniably solid.
We don’t use ply or veneer here. This is a solid block of sustainably sourced timber, planed, sanded, and finished by hand in our Yorkshire workshop. It represents the "grounded" nature of a five-year union. It isn’t flimsy, and it isn’t going anywhere.
Telling Your Unique Story
The beauty of the cube isn't just in the grain; it is in the story you choose to tell on the sides.
We laser engrave each face to your specifications, turning a piece of wood into a time capsule of your relationship.
A Modern Heirloom
In a world of disposable gifts, there is something comforting about an object made to last. The oak we use has a rich, golden hue that will only deepen and improve with age, much like a good marriage.
Because every cube is handmade in Yorkshire, no two are ever identical. The knots, the grain patterns, and the "charming imperfections" are unique to your piece. It is a genuine one-of-a-kind creation.
Whether it sits on a desk, a mantlepiece, or a bedside table, it serves as a daily, quiet reminder of the roots you have put down together.
