Every Order
is a Custom Order
We do not maintain any stock or inventory of our works. When you order, you are commissioning your own œuvre d'art that we lovingly craft for you from select, hand-picked, solid Walnut sourced from the foot of the Alps and made in our woodshop in Bons-En-Chablais, France.
Gift Wrapping?
In our opinion, every single order is a special gift. In true French spirit, we look with condescension at plastic packaging & bubble wrap. Au contraire, we treat your gift like a fine grand cru; we wrap it like a baby angel in a velvety, suede material, tie it with a regal bow, and then we gently lay it in a special wooden shipping box that we custom-build in our woodshop. So you will literally need a screwdriver to open it when it arrives.
A Special note to Churches
When planning a gift for your pastor, we know it can be a hassle to collect personal donations from your members. And if you try to do it on a Sunday morning, you risk giving away the surprise.
To solve this problem, and to make your life easier, we can create a special online giving link, "Gift for Pastor John" for example, that you can simply email to all your members.
Please contact us for more details.
