Welcome to Woodmorning !! We are Marios and Voula. In August 2016 we decided to leave Athens and come to to the island of Crete, “Chania” in particular, to the Art & Craft Village "Verekynthos". In our workshop you will find 100% handmade wooden creations with various types of wood and of course our favorite wood of the olive tree, the blessed tree! We make our favorite jewelry from olive wood, which, in combination with the liquid glass, have a perfect harmony. "Earth and water”, as a client once said. All our creations are 100% handmade and this makes the nature of our work even more unique and spotless, because many times we begin from a point and we end up somewhere else, as wood has its own magic to lead you, with its color, its curly texture and of course its age! These items are stylish, elegant and gorgeous, since wonderful and unique is the olive wood itself. The raw material, the wood of the olive tree, comes from olive groves. So, do not hesitate, just stop by our studio for a tour of the magical world of wood, let us treat you something, let us meet you, and if you like what we create just buy something !! We wait and remember that .. "A day without laughter and song, is a day wasted!"
