About

A small workshop that answers its own phone

Whyni Wood is a family workshop in Cape Town making solid wood furniture and homeware to order, from Africa shaped serving boards to oak and steel desks. No flat packs, no veneer over chipboard.

We work in solid oak, European ash, kiaat, iroko, African mahogany, beech and blackwood. Every piece is made one at a time, which is why your size and your idea are the starting point rather than an upcharge.

  • Solid timber throughout, never veneered board
  • Food-safe finishes on anything that touches food
  • Progress photos so you see it being made
  • Fixed quote up front, no surprises on delivery
How it works

From message to delivery

No showroom, no sales process. A WhatsApp message is enough to start.

Tell us the idea

Send a photo of the space, a rough sketch or a reference picture. Dimensions help, but we can work them out with you.

Quote and timber

We come back with a fixed price, the timber options and a lead time. Nothing gets cut until you are happy.

Built by hand

Cut, joined, sanded and finished in the Cape Town workshop. We send progress photos as it comes together.

Delivered

Collection from the workshop, or local delivery arranged across Cape Town. Care instructions come with every piece.
