Our master craftsman learned the trade from his father, who learned from his grandfather. Three generations of knowledge, distilled into every joint and every grain selection.
Each piece is signed and numbered. You're not buying furniture - you're inheriting craft.
Detailed information about this piece โ tap a section to expand.
This wave floating shelf starts as a single slab of solid wood. Our Vietnamese artisans hand-carve the crescent shape from raw timber. No CNC machines. No plywood layers. No MDF core. Just a woodworker, hand tools, and a block of hardwood.
The curved body sweeps upward from the wall into a flat display surface at the crest. Set a small plant, candle, or keepsake on top. Below, the curled tail completes the wave's motion. Most curved floating shelves you'll find online are machine-cut from laminated plywood or molded MDF. This one is carved from a solid slab, so the grain flows continuously through every curve.
โ๏ธ Preview Your Design Before Production We photograph and video your actual piece before packing. You review the grain pattern, color tone, and finish, then approve before we ship. No surprises.
๐ Solid Wood, Real Grain Teak and elm are dense hardwoods with natural oils that resist moisture, warping, and cracking. The grain pattern on your shelf is one of a kind. No stains, no veneers, no printed wood-look film. What you see is the wood itself.
๐ Wall Art That Holds Weight This shelf is a decorative wall piece on its own. The flat top surface supports up to 15 lbs, enough for books, a small plant, or a framed photo.
๐ Where to Place It Living room: mount above a sofa or beside a TV. Display a candle, small plant, or art object. Entryway: use as a key and wallet tray by the door. The wave shape turns a blank wall into a focal point. Bedroom: works as a floating nightstand. Set your phone, a book, or a reading lamp on the crest. Bathroom: teak resists moisture, so it holds up near sinks and showers. Good for a rolled towel, soap dish, or diffuser. Home office: break up a flat wall above your desk. Keep a pen holder or small succulent on display.
๐ Sustainably Sourced Hardwood Crafted from responsibly harvested teak or elm, depending on current availability. Finished with a non-toxic, water-resistant coating that protects the wood and brings out the natural color without hiding it.
๐ Concealed Wall Mount Hidden bracket system built into the back. No visible hardware on the wall. The shelf appears to float. All mounting hardware and instructions included.
๐ Custom Sizing Available Every piece is made to order. Contact the Ashdeco team with your wall measurements and we build it to fit.
Furniture Placement
Position your furniture away from direct sunlight, or use blinds or curtains to reduce sun exposure.
Always set your furniture on a level surface to preserve its balance and structure.
Cleaning & Upkeep
Regularly wipe down your furniture with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth.
Avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia, as these can ruin the finish and damage the wood.
Weight Capacity & Use
Respect the recommended weight limit for each piece to ensure its durability.
When moving furniture, lift it instead of dragging or pushing to prevent surface scratches or joint damage.
Preventing Mold & Mildew
Quickly wipe up any spills to stop moisture from penetrating the wood.
In areas with high humidity, use a dehumidifier to maintain an ideal moisture balance.

Craftsmanship vs factory
What separates handcrafted from factory-made
Both are solid wood. Both look beautiful in catalog photos. But the difference shows up when you live with the piece for 10 years and again when you pass it down.
Comparison between Factory-made solid wood ($179.25) and our piece ($239.00), covering lifespan, annual cost, restorability, and quality factors.

Soul of wood
No two tables are ever the same
Every plank carries its own grain, color, and knots. These aren't flaws - they are time's signature, the fingerprint of a tree that lived for decades. When you touch a Ashdeco table, you're touching the years it stood through.

Everything you need to know about our pieces, commissions, and care.
How long does shipping take?
In Vietnam: 3-5 days. International: 10-14 days. Larger pieces (tables, cabinets) may take longer due to custom crating. All shipments include tracking and insurance.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping is calculated by weight + dimensions at checkout. You'll see the exact quote before paying.
How long does a commission take?
4-8 weeks depending on complexity. A 6-seater dining table takes ~6 weeks, a console cabinet ~4 weeks, a large sideboard ~8 weeks.
50% deposit is required when you confirm sketches. The remaining 50% is due when the piece is finished, before shipping. Full refund within 48 hours of deposit if you change your mind.
How do I take care of my wood piece?
Wipe with a damp cloth โ no chemicals. Apply wood oil 1-2 times per year (we include a starter bottle). Avoid direct sunlight and big humidity changes.
What if my piece develops cracks?
Wood expands and contracts with humidity โ minor cracks are natural and part of the material. Major cracks within the first year: we fix free. After 1 year, we charge labor only.
Can I return a piece?
Ready-made pieces: 30-day returns (must arrive intact). Commissions: final sale (since they're custom-made for you). If anything arrives damaged, we'll repair or replace at no cost.
