Natural, Handmade, Distinctive Home Decor

What draws people to natural, handmade goods? Is it the meticulous craftsmanship, the evident passion, and the unwavering quality that radiates warmth and care? Or is it the authenticity and uniqueness of each piece, bringing a touch of the artisan’s heritage right into your home? Perhaps it’s knowing that your purchase supports a craftsman’s livelihood or contributes to preserving the planet by opting for sustainable, non-mass-produced items. No matter the reason, there’s something undeniably magical about these creations—they tell stories of their makers, and at Restoration Oak, those stories inspire us deeply. That’s why we travel far and wide to discover one-of-a-kind pieces that elevate your space and enrich your life.

Take our special line, Pressed Flowers, as an example. These exquisite platters, bowls, and serveware are crafted by women artisans in Colombia. Omar first encountered their work during his 2003 visit to Colombia and fell in love with both their creations and the dedication behind them. Each item starts with pine wood and real flowers—like gardenias and roses—from their gardens. After being carefully pressed and dried in old-fashioned phonebooks, the flowers are individually arranged onto the wooden surface before multiple layers of epoxy seal them in place. The result is breathtaking: a fusion of nature and art that’s entirely unique. This exclusive line is available only at Restoration Oak, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with these talented Colombian women on new designs. By choosing one of these pieces, you’re not just adding beauty to your home—you’re also supporting the artisans who create them.

Another remarkable collection we offer is Molten Glass Sculptures from Bali. We feel incredibly lucky to have discovered this group of skilled Balinese men and women who pour their heart and soul into creating these masterpieces. The process begins when molten glass is hand-blown over a flame and then poured directly onto driftwood collected from local beaches. Every sculpture is utterly distinct, showcasing the perfect harmony between fire, glass, and nature. You’ll notice subtle burn marks from the hot glass on each piece, adding character and charm. These artisans rely on the income generated by selling these works to sustain themselves and their families, and we’re proud to help bring their talent to the world. Owning one of these sculptures means owning a piece of Balinese culture and craftsmanship.

We’re always searching for new treasures to share with you. There’s nothing quite like filling your home with handmade items that reflect your personality and values. Why settle for mass-produced pieces when you can enjoy something crafted with care and intention? Each handmade object tells a story, and we believe those stories make every day brighter. So why wait? Visit us today and let yourself fall in love with a piece that speaks uniquely to you.
