From our Liverpool workshop to discerning collectors worldwide, we transform sustainably-sourced hardwoods into one-of-a-kind sculptural treasures that tell your story.
Every masterpiece begins with a conversation and culminates in a legacy piece that will be treasured for generations.
We begin every project by listening to your story, understanding your vision, and exploring how the piece will live in your space.
Together, we select the perfect wood species for your project. Each piece of timber is chosen for its unique grain and character.
Our master artisans employ time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Every detail is executed by hand.
Every piece of wood we use is sustainably sourced from certified forestry operations. We believe in honoring both the craft and the environment that provides our materials.
Each piece in our collection represents years of experience, countless hours of meticulous craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. These are not just sculptures—they are stories carved in wood.
Commissioned by the Thornfield Estate in 2023, this 8-foot oak sculpture represents the ancient guardian spirit of their 200-year-old property. Carved from a single piece of English oak that fell naturally on the estate itself, the piece incorporates intricate Celtic knotwork and wildlife motifs.
The project required 6 months of meticulous work, including consultations with local historians and naturalists to ensure every detail reflected the land's unique heritage. The piece now serves as the centerpiece of the estate's grand entrance hall.

"Every piece of wood has a story waiting to be revealed. My role is simply to listen and carve away everything that doesn't belong."
For over three decades, Master Craftsman Edward Langston has dedicated his life to the ancient art of woodcarving. What began as childhood fascination with his grandfather's whittling knife has evolved into a world-renowned workshop that serves collectors, institutions, and discerning clients across six continents.
Based in the heart of Liverpool's historic arts quarter, our workshop combines traditional hand-carving techniques with an understanding of contemporary design. Every commission is a collaboration between artisan, client, and the raw beauty of sustainably-sourced hardwoods.
"We don't simply carve wood—we collaborate with it. Each grain line guides our tools, each knot tells us where to pause and listen. This is craftsmanship as meditation, creation as conversation."
"Edward's work transcends mere decoration—each piece is a meditation on the relationship between human creativity and natural beauty."
— Victoria M., Private Collector
