The most important element of a Selwyn House product is that it’s made by hand – processed from rough-sawn timber or individually turned on the lathe.

All Selwyn House pieces are designed to be functional as well as beautiful, and only by handling a piece throughout it’s production can you really make it ‘feel’ right – shaping the handle a little more to fit well in the hand, turning a bowl to the ‘right’ weight, or spotting those miniscule flaws before they become a problem.

At finishing stage, the oils and waxes used are carefully adapted to suit each type of timber and product. Serveware is always made to be food-safe and all boards are now made with a beeswax-free finish (suitable for vegans).
