About Our Handmade Furniture Workshop

A warm wooden living room filled with natural light.
An illustrative Vanodio living space.

It starts with how you live.

A reading corner by the window. A kitchen with room for everyone. At Vanodio, everyday routines are the starting point for thoughtful design — furniture that earns its place by serving real life, not by filling a catalogue.

Our workshop

Our furniture is handmade from solid wood in our workshop in Vietnam, then shipped to clients worldwide. Working by hand means we can follow a brief closely — dimensions, proportions, joinery and finish — instead of forcing your space to fit a standard size. It also means each piece carries small natural variations that give it character over time.

Because we control production ourselves, we can take on work most retailers cannot: a table at an unusual length, a wardrobe for an awkward alcove, a finish matched to an existing interior. The trade-off is time — handmade pieces are made, not pulled from a shelf — but for the right piece, that time is the point.

Why choose handmade

Machine-made furniture is built to a price; handmade furniture is built to a brief. Producing in our own workshop means we control every step — timber selection, joinery, finish — and can adjust when the space demands it. The cost is time: a handmade piece is made, not picked from a shelf. For the right piece, that time is the value.

Materials and finishes

We favour solid wood species such as oak, acacia and walnut — chosen for durability, grain and everyday hard-wearing character. Every piece is selected, worked and finished by hand in our workshop; the surface coating is chosen to celebrate the natural grain while protecting it. Because it is handmade, each item carries small variations — the mark of real wood and of the people who made it.

Design principles

  • People first, materials second. A plan is only right when it serves how you actually live.
  • Less, but enough. Every piece of furniture earns its place in the space.
  • Easy to live in, easy to care for. Durable surfaces, tidy layouts and clear functions come first.
  • Yours, unmistakably. The final space should feel like your home, not anyone else’s.

How we work

  1. Talk about your needs, budget and timeline.
  2. Visit the space and propose a practical layout.
  3. Agree on the design, materials and implementation drawings.
  4. Coordinate the fit-out, review the work and hand over the space.

From Vietnam to your home

We ship our furniture internationally with export-grade packing and documentation. Every piece is inspected, edge-protected and crated before it reaches the carrier. Destination, carrier and timing are confirmed per order because they depend on the piece and where it is going — see the shipping page for details. For whole-project or business orders, our wholesale programme covers volume pricing and bulk production planning.
