FAQs

Treen refers to small, functional wooden domestic objects made before the widespread use of plastics and mass production, often turned on a lathe.

Craftsmen typically utilised dense, durable hardwoods such as boxwood, lignum vitae, maple, and fruitwoods like plum or pear.

Authenticity is determined by tool marks from hand-lathe turning, shrinkage cracks, historic patina, and appropriate wear consistent with age.

Treen items add warmth and organic texture when displayed on bookshelves, sideboards, or within glass cabinets alongside contemporary items.

Maintain wooden treen by keeping it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations, occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the surface.
