Inspired by Nature, Crafted by Hand
Why Handcrafted?
When you choose handmade, you’re choosing:
✨ Quality over quantity
🌿 Natural materials that are built to last
🪵 Real craftsmanship — no mass production
🤝 A connection with the maker
🇦🇺 Australian-made and locally created
Handcrafted items carry soul. They become part of your home, part of your story — and it’s a privilege to create for you.
My Story
At Alex’s Artisanal Workshop, every piece begins with a love for natural timber and the joy of crafting something lasting by hand.
Based on the Central Coast of NSW, I create bespoke timber furniture and home décor that blend rustic warmth with modern simplicity. From coffee tables and serving trays to one-of-a-kind gift pieces, each creation is made to bring a touch of nature and heart into your home
The Craft
Each project starts with carefully chosen timber — acacia, pine, or merbau — selected for its unique character and grain.
Whether it’s sanding a tabletop to a glass-smooth finish or applying the final clear coat, my goal is simple: to celebrate the beauty of wood while crafting pieces built to last.
I focus on sustainable methods, hand-finishing techniques, and design that balances natural elegance with everyday function.
The Philosophy
For Your Home & Heart isn’t just a phrase — it’s what guides everything I make.
I believe handmade pieces carry a kind of warmth that mass-produced furniture can’t. It’s in the small imperfections, the texture of real timber, and the care behind every detail. My hope is that each piece not only fits your home — but feels like part of it.
The Maker
Hi, I’m Alex Duke, the hands behind the workshop.
I started woodworking out of a passion for creating — for seeing raw timber transform into something beautiful and meaningful. What began as a small hobby has grown into a local business built on craftsmanship, creativity, and community.
Whether it’s a market stall conversation or a custom commission, every interaction inspires new ideas and connections.
