Craftsmanship with Heart.

Each piece at Vital Tree is made with care, intention, and a deep appreciation for the wood itself. No two are alike. Whether it's Black Walnut, Cherry, or Maple, the natural characteristics of the material inspire the final form—from one-of-a-kind statement pieces to thoughtfully crafted lamps, bowls, and vessels. In the studio, even the smallest projects are treated with the same reverence, allowing the wood’s story to guide every cut, curve, and finish.
