While it may sound a bit trite, our goal at Chosen Wood is to bring joy, laughter and inspiration to our customers. It is as simple as that.
Chosen Wood is a Veteran owned business started in late 2023. The original concept was to turn Chalices, Goblets, and Wine Flutes a wood lathe as gifts for family and friends. During the creative process, ideas were considered on how to convert scrap wood into additional products and avoid waste. Thus the idea of making wood blocks came about. From there, the decision to put witty sayings on them was adopted. For the next year, product research & development, marketing analysis along with the manufacturing of "Chosen Wood" block prototypes were conducted to prove-out our ideas. "Knock On Wood" was selected to be the first of many blocks we now produce.
To build awareness of our products, hundreds of examples were produced and given away at random. Feedback was crucial, but super rewarding. After honing our skills in the shop for a year, we began manufacturing "Chosen Wood" blocks for commercial sale. In addition to our line of wood blocks, including the afore mentioned Wine Flutes etc, we now manufacture Cutting Boards, Trays, Signs, Chess Boards with more offerings in the future.
The name Chosen Wood came about rather serendipitously during discussions of our customer's ability to choose the type of wood they wanted, and whether a name for the woodworking business had been chosen. At that moment, "Chosen Wood" was born.
