Why Choose Custom Timber Furniture?

Choosing custom timber furniture means investing in longevity, style, and a personal touch that mass-produced items simply cannot offer.

Crafted from premium Australian hardwood, our furniture is designed to complement any setting, from sleek modern offices to cosy rustic homes.

With custom furniture, you can also choose the materials you would like. For example, our Industrial Cantilever Table is available in potted Gum, Blackbutt, Tassie Blackwood, Victorian Ash, or American Oak timber.


How Does Our Design and Consultation Process Work?

Our design consultation is a collaborative process aimed at bringing your vision to life. It begins with a conversation, either over the phone or in person at our Maroochydore showroom, where we discuss your requirements, the intended space for the furniture, and any specific design elements you're looking for. Book a design consultation with Paolo at our Things of Metal & Wood to get started.



How Can I Take Care Of Custom Furniture?

One of the most significant benefits of custom timber furniture is the ability to customise every aspect, from dimensions to finishes, ensuring that each piece not only fits your space perfectly but also reflects your personal style. 

However, timber, being a natural material, requires some care to maintain its appearance and integrity over time. Regular maintenance, especially for pieces placed in coastal areas or exposed to the elements, is crucial. Dust your custom timber furniture regularly and avoid exposure to moisture to keep your custom furniture in good condition.



How Long Does Custom Furniture Take?

The journey from design to delivery for custom timber furniture with Things of Metal and Wood usually spans approximately 3-6 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and material availability. 


How Much Does Custom Furniture Cost?

The cost of custom furniture can vary widely based on factors such as design complexity, materials used, and the size of the piece. At Things of Metal and Wood, we pride ourselves on offering a range of custom furniture options to suit different budgets and styles.

Our Slatted Outdoor Table is a great choice for custom outdoor furniture and starts at $2900, with bench seats available from $1000.

For indoor custom furniture, our Cross Leg Round Table, starting from $4200, is a very popular option.
