Handcrafted Turned Gifts

At Mr H Woodwork, every piece in my handcrafted turned gifts collection starts with a simple idea and a beautiful block of wood.  I use time honoured techniques and  hand-finishing processes to transform each piece into something full of character and individuality. My bespoke wood turning services offer elegant, functional, and decorative items ranging from hand-turned bowls and platters to custom wooden candlesticks, vases and unique home décor. Each turned design highlights the natural beauty of the wood grain, carefully shaped on the lathe, then polished to perfection.

What makes my creations special is their originality, no two items are ever alike. Whether you're searching for a practical addition to your kitchen, a meaningful custom turned wooden gift, or a truly decorative centrepiece for your home, I focus on craftsmanship and attention to every detail. My pieces are both beautiful and practical, designed to be treasured and used for years.
