Joey Chalk has always been fascinated with making things, and making them well – furniture, in particular. We spoke with the craftsman about producing handmade timber furniture for homes across Aotearoa.
From a young age, Joey enjoyed experimenting with building and woodworking, always endeavouring to craft unique designs of top quality.
While Joey doesn't have a favourite material to work with, he does prefer to work with hardwoods such as ash.
Often designed to be multipurpose, Joey Chalk pieces are handcrafted in the new Waipu studio.
"We design and make what you can’t find elsewhere; custom made entertainment units, bookcases, dining tables, wardrobes, sideboards, rocking chairs, jewellery boxes, toys - whatever you need; we can make it."
