“People ask how long a piece takes. I say: six years of learning, and then however long the wood needs.”
Alex Nguyen never went to woodworking school. Everything he knows came from watching, testing, failing, and spending his first two years ruining more pieces of wood than he’d probably like to admit in public.
But that rough beginning gave him something valuable - a deep understanding of how different woods behave when pushed too far, cut too quickly, or finished the wrong way. Experience has a funny way of teaching lessons that books usually skip.
Today, he specializes in bathroom vanities and corner shelves, pieces that demand both precision and durability in humid spaces where wood has absolutely no patience for mistakes.
Around the workshop, people trust Alex Nguyen with projects that need to survive daily life, not just look pretty in photos.
And if a piece leaves his bench, chances are it’ll still be standing long after the trends around it disappear.

Transform your bathroom into an extraordinary gallery space with this hand-carved floating vanity. Seamlessly blending fluid, 3D ocean wave carvings across the cabinet fronts with practical closed-and-open storage, this wall-mounted centerpiece brings resort-style elegance and architectural artistry directly to your home.
Why Choose This Piece?
100% Genuine Solid Wood: Entirely constructed from heavy-grade solid wood - never hollow MDF, particleboard, or synthetic veneers. Its dense timber framework easily supports heavy stone or ceramic vessel sinks without warping or sagging over time.
Hand-Carved 3D Wave Artistry: The front doors feature intricate, sweeping wave motifs carved directly into the timber. This relief technique captures dynamic light and shadow interplay, creating a captivating visual texture beneath ambient bathroom lighting.
Authentic Solid Wood Character: Flowing natural wood grain paths run across the carved contours, complemented by warm timber tones. Finished with a specialized protective sealant, it withstands high humidity while offering a rich, tactile experience.
Smart & Functional Storage: Designed with double cabinet doors to neatly conceal plumbing, pipes, and personal toiletries, alongside side open compartments for quick access to fresh towels, bath salts, and aromatherapy diffusers.
Ideal Placement
Master En-Suites & Luxury Villas: Serves as the ultimate statement vanity in modern organic, Wabi-Sabi, or high-end contemporary homes, penthouses, and primary bathrooms.
Bespoke Spas & Boutique Hotels: Creates an unforgettable luxury aesthetic in executive washrooms, wellness retreats, and boutique hospitality suites.
Honest Limitations & Natural Characteristics
Handmade & Grain Uniqueness: Because each cabinet is individually carved from natural timber, subtle variations in wood grain patterns and carving depths ensure your vanity is a true one-of-a-kind art piece.
Installation Requirements: Due to the weight of solid wood, this unit must be securely anchored into concrete, solid brick, or reinforced wall studs by a qualified professional installer.
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.

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 — 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 — 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.
