FunnyWood: Where Timber Learns to Smile

Life’s too serious not to surround yourself with smiling wood.

The Whisper in the Grain

In a quiet workshop, an old oak plank lay waiting.

Its surface bore the scars of storms, the knots held secret diaries, and its grain traced journeys long forgotten.

Most saw timber.

One craftsman saw a smile hiding beneath the bark.

That day, FunnyWood was born—not from a business plan, but from a gentle rebellion:

What if wood didn’t have to be so serious?

Our name?

FunnyWood—a nod to the unexpected joy hidden in grain and groove. In a world of screens and sameness, we invite you to bring back texture, warmth, and a little lighthearted magic.

Carving Levity, Not Just Wood

We don’t chase perfection. We chase whimsy.

While traditional carvers smooth away every flaw, we lean into them:

  • A knot becomes a wink.
  • A crack turns into a punchline.
  • A twisted grain? That’s just the wood laughing.

Our tools dance to Bowie. Our mallets swing to jazz.

Because even the most solemn craft deserves a little joy.

Every piece begins with a question:

“What makes this timber chuckle?”

For salvaged maple, it became a squirrel balancing a teacup.

For storm-felled cherry, a bookshelf with legs that giggle.

From Forest to Fable — Responsibly

We partner with forest guardians, not lumberjacks.

Our wood is rescued, never harvested:

✦ Reclaimed from urban tree removals

✦ Reborn from furniture factory offcuts

Each sculpture is shaped by hand through 47 meticulous steps:

  • Listen to the timber’s story (tea required, silence optional)
  • Liberate its humor with Japanese chisels
  • Polish until it gleams—and almost giggles—in sunlight

No two pieces are alike. Like snowflakes. But funnier.

Why “Funny” Isn’t Frivolous

Critics in Copenhagen once called our work “serious playfulness.”

A paradox? Perhaps.

But hold a Fox Philosopher—monocle perched, walnut scroll in paw—and you’ll feel it:

  • The weight of oak’s wisdom
  • The tickle of carved absurdity

Joy and depth share the same grain.

Your Invitation

We don’t sell decorations.

We release timber’s suppressed comedy.

Each piece is an heirloom that whispers:

“Life’s too short for solemn shelves.”

So go ahead.

Let your desk dream.

Let your bookshelf tell a joke.

Let your home breathe with warmth, wonder, and a quiet wooden smile.

QUALITY STANDARDS

Only FSC-certified wood of the highest quality is used. The edges are rounded and finely sanded in several work steps so that they are pleasant and soft to the touch.

All of our designs strive to use the colors of the wood itself for stitching, rather than using chemical pigments for coloring.

All the materials we use are high quality, safe and durable.

We sand each item many times to be sure that they are very smooth. All of the edges are rounded.

Handmade

Creating a figurine involves over a hundred steps. Each component is made from solid wood, meticulously carved and polished. Carving is one of the most challenging yet crucial stages. Due to the nature of wood, even the slightest tremor in the carving tool can lead to defects, rendering the piece useless. The process, from carving to polishing and finally assembling, can take anywhere from dozens of hours to more than ten days. The precision involved can rival the intricacies of embroidery. Whether for play or admiration, each figurine is a unique treasure.
