Made to Order – Just for You Please note that this item is handmade to order specifically for you. Because I make every piece individually here in my studio, please allow 4-5 days for me to craft and finish your item before despatch.

A Genuine One-Off The images shown are a representation of the design, but because wood is a natural material, your specific piece will have its own unique grain patterns and character. It will not be identical to the picture—it will be exclusively yours.

I celebrate the natural history of the wood; grain patterns, knots, and slight variations are not defects, but part of the material's natural beauty and character. All timber is responsibly sourced from trusted UK suppliers.

Please note: Personalised boards are non-refundable unless faulty. Please check your spelling carefully before ordering
