About OAK VILLAGE

Established in 1974, OAK VILLAGE is a woodcrafts company with an aim to build a sustainable society in which humans and the surrounding environment not only co-exist, but also evolve symbiotically. Our studio is in the woods of Takayama, Japan, where the woodcraft heritage has existed for over 1,300 years.

By applying traditional Japanese woodcraft techniques, we strive to create products that last as long as possible. We minimize the usage of non-recyclable and non-biodegradable materials in our products so that when they are no longer usable in their original form, they may be recycled or returned to the earth.

OAK VILLAGE's Philosophy

Turning a 100-Year-Old Tree into Products that Last 100 Years

We strive to create products that will last as many years as the age of the trees used in our products. It is our way of paying respect to the forests from which we receive great resources, and in the meanwhile, we can plant and nurture trees to grow new forests.

From Bowls to Buildings

Using solid wood (as opposed to plywood or veneer), we use different parts of a given tree for different purposes. We create a wide range of wooden products, ranging from small articles like accessories and tableware, to larger items like furniture, and we also specialize in wooden architecture. Through our products we hope to support the needs of a sustainable lifestyle.

One Acorn for Every Child

If we use trees, we plan to plant acorns that will be the same size in 100 years and return the trees to the mountains, so we are planting and growing broadleaf trees.
