CraftedWood — Exquisite Handcrafted Furniture
At CraftedWood, we celebrate the timeless artistry of handcrafted furniture, where each piece is a unique expression of craftsmanship, quality, and heritage. From bespoke dining tables and heirloom bedroom suites to custom-built shelving and accent pieces, our creations transform living spaces into personal sanctuaries. Using sustainably sourced woods—walnut, oak, mahogany, and reclaimed teak—combined with traditional joinery and modern design insights, CraftedWood delivers furniture that not only endures but also tells a story through every grain and curve.
About CraftedWood – Where Artistry Meets Function
Founded in Alexandria by master carpenter and designer Rana El‑Sherif, CraftedWood emerged from a vision to revive Egypt’s rich woodworking legacy and bring true artisan quality to contemporary interiors. Our workshop brings together seasoned artisans, each with decades of experience in hand‑tool techniques—mortise and tenon joinery, dovetail drawers, hand‑planed surfaces—and finishes derived from natural oils and waxes.
Every project begins with an in‑depth design consultation: we explore your aesthetic preferences, functional requirements, and space constraints. Detailed sketches and scale models guide material selection, ensuring the final piece harmonizes with your décor and lifestyle. In our light‑filled studio, each board is inspected for character—knots, figures, and color variations—and then carefully milled, shaped, and assembled. Quality‑control checkpoints at every stage guarantee structural integrity, ergonomic comfort, and flawless finish quality.
Beyond furniture, CraftedWood fosters a community of design enthusiasts through open‑house studio tours, woodworking masterclasses, and collaborative art installations. By blending heritage craftsmanship with contemporary sensibilities, we create pieces that become both functional furnishings and works of art—passed down through generations as treasured family heirlooms.

Our Services – Six Bespoke Offerings
- Custom Furniture Design & Build
Collaborate with our design team to create one‑of‑a‑kind pieces tailored to your exact needs. From initial concept sketches and 3D renderings to full‑scale prototypes, we refine every detail—dimensions, joinery, and finish—ensuring the final product fits your space, style, and usage patterns flawlessly. Our bespoke builds can incorporate integrated lighting, concealed storage compartments, and mixed‑media accents. - Heirloom‑Quality Dining & Living Collections
Elevate entertaining and daily living with handcrafted dining tables, sideboards, coffee tables, and media consoles. We select premium hardwoods, hand‑cut live edges, and accent inlays of brass or resin for a perfect balance of luxury and durability. Each tabletop is carefully flattened and sealed with food‑safe finishes, while chair frames and benches are ergonomically shaped for comfort. - Custom Cabinetry & Built‑Ins
Maximize functionality and style with tailor‑made kitchen cabinets, bookcases, wardrobes, and office millwork. Precise site measurements ensure seamless integration with existing architecture. Soft‑close drawers, adjustable shelving systems, and hidden hardware mechanisms deliver the ultimate in usability, while specialty woods and paneling styles reflect your personal design vision. - Restoration & Refinishing Services
Breathe new life into family antiques, vintage finds, and worn heirlooms. Our restoration process includes structural repairs, joint reinforcement, careful stripping of old finishes, and hand‑sanding of surfaces. We then apply historically accurate stains or custom color blends followed by hand‑rubbed oil or wax finishes—preserving patina while ensuring long‑term protection. - Outdoor & Garden Furniture
Enjoy luxury al fresco living with our weather‑resistant outdoor collections crafted from sustainably harvested teak, cedar, and redwood. Mortise‑and‑tenon frames, stainless‑steel fasteners, and UV‑stable oils ensure your benches, loungers, and dining sets withstand summer sun and winter rains. Coordinate accent planters and pergola trellises for a cohesive garden retreat. - Architectural Millwork & Specialty Projects
Stack the artistry beyond furniture with custom doors, window casings, crown mouldings, and staircase elements. Our CNC‑assisted hand‑finishing delivers intricate carvings and profiles that enhance luxury homes, studios, and commercial spaces. For unique applications—wine cellars, library ladders, or reception desks—we engineer solutions that blend structural demands with refined aesthetics.
Why Choose CraftedWood? – Six Strategic Advantages
- 1. Certified Master Artisans & Lifelong Expertise
Our workshop team includes guild‑trained woodworkers whose collective experience spans over a century of combined bench time. Each artisan undergoes ongoing skill‑development to master both time‑honored hand‑tool methods and modern precision techniques—ensuring every joint, curve, and finish element meets the highest standards of craftsmanship. - 2. Uncompromising Material Selection
We partner with certified sustainable forestry suppliers and reclaimed‑wood specialists to source boards of exceptional character and stability. Each piece undergoes moisture‑content analysis, defect grading, and air‑drying to prevent warping. This rigorous attention to raw materials underpins the longevity and beauty of every CraftedWood furnishing. - 3. Fully Transparent Design & Production Workflow
Through our client portal and in‑studio visits, you see every stage of your project—from digital design approvals and material cuts to assembly and final finishing. Comprehensive updates, progress photos, and milestone walkthroughs keep you engaged and informed, ensuring the finished piece aligns exactly with your vision. - 4. Exceptional Finishes with Natural Oils & Waxes
Our finishing processes use plant‑derived oils and beeswax blends that enhance wood grain, repel moisture, and mature gracefully over time. Unlike synthetic polyurethane coatings, our finishes can be spot‑repaired and re‑oiled in situ—preserving the tactile warmth and natural patina that define handcrafted quality. - 5. Sustainable Practices & Community Commitment
CraftedWood is dedicated to reducing environmental impact. Off‑cuts and sawdust are recycled into composite boards or donated for local beekeeping hives. Our studio hosts public workshops teaching upcycling techniques, and we support vocational training programs that pass woodworking skills to the next generation. - 6. Comprehensive Aftercare & Warranty
Every CraftedWood piece includes a five‑year structural warranty and lifetime finish‑maintenance guidelines. Our mobile service team offers on‑site cleaning, re‑oiling, and minor repairs—ensuring your investment retains its beauty, functionality, and heirloom value through decades of use.
