We rested, reset, and spent time where it mattered most.

Now we’re back — hands in the workshop, ideas on the table, and a renewed love for creating meaningful pieces for everyday living.

Thank you for waiting.

Crafted for a love that lasts a lifetime 💍
These custom wooden ring boxes were made for a couple who wanted something meaningful to hold the most important symbols of their forever.

Personalised with their initials, wedding date, and a verse close to their hearts — each box opens to a moment, a memory, a promise.

Handcrafted with care. Made to hold more than just rings.

🌿 Custom Balance Bikes – Built Just for Your Little One 🚲

Each of our handcrafted balance bikes is made to order with love and care. Production takes 2 weeks from the time we receive your 30% deposit and you’ve approved your custom paint colors.

Once we’ve got the green light, we get started right away—cutting, sanding, painting, and assembling your little one’s first ride.

Thank you for supporting handmade! ✨

The chisels are down (for now)! We’re stepping away from custom orders as we gear up for the Christmas in Winter Festival in Tulbagh. From 7 June to 30 June 2025, our workshop will be focused on crafting pieces just for the event.

Can’t wait to share what we’ve been building — see you there from 27–29 June 2025!

We’re Back in the Workshop!

After a beautiful pause to celebrate love (and survive the whirlwind of wedding planning!), we’re back—with full hearts and sawdust on our sleeves.

The Mortise and Tenon is officially open again, and we’re diving into the wood grain with fresh inspiration, renewed creativity, and a deep appreciation for life’s beautifully crafted moments.

Whether it’s a timeless piece of furniture, a playful toy for little hands, or the perfect cutting board for your kitchen, we can’t wait to create with you again.

Thank you for your patience—and for being part of our story. Let’s build something beautiful together.

—The Mortise and Tenon
