“I learned to read wood before I learned to read words. Some things just come first.”
Ngoc Vo grew up in her grandfather’s woodworking shop, where she was taught that the hands should understand before the eyes even notice. That philosophy still shows in the way she works today.
She’s the craftswoman behind many of Ashdeco’s tree bookshelves and wall tree shelves - pieces that require turning a straight block of wood into branches that feel naturally grown instead of artificially designed. It’s delicate work, somewhere between sculpture and stubbornness.
Customers often ask her how the branches end up looking “so real.”
Ngoc Vo usually smiles and says, “Because I’m not trying to make it look real. I’m trying to make it be real.”

Turn an empty corner into an enchanting storybook wonderland with our Artisanal Solid Wood Corner Tree Bookshelf. Skillfully hand-sculpted from authentic solid wood, this grand wall installation wraps smoothly into your room’s corner, branching across both walls to create an imaginative focal point. Designed to spark early creativity, it combines organic tree branches, a peek-a-boo trunk hollow, and multi-level ledges tailored for growing book collections and treasured toys.
Authentic Solid Wood Craftsmanship: Handcrafted entirely from genuine solid wood - never veneer, plastic wraps, or engineered MDF bound with chemical glues. The authentic soul of natural timber is celebrated through distinct grain flows, soft tonal gradations, and a warm, tactile finish that mass production cannot achieve. Every curving bough and shelf ledge is carefully shaped, smoothed, and finished for everyday family life.
Functional Two-Wall Nursery Storage: Built to wrap around an interior corner, this expansive structure maximizes vertical wall space while keeping floors clear for play. Generous staggered ledges provide ample room for bedtime picture books, milestone keepsakes, soft teddy bears, nightlights, and audio players. An adorable sculpted trunk hollow offers a cozy perch for a favorite plush companion.
Standard Shelf Specifications & Thickness: Horizontal shelves feature a dependable standard thickness of around 1.2 to 1.5 inches (approx. 3 - 4 cm) to support heavy stacks of hardcover books without sagging. If your nursery design calls for an extra-thick architectural look or a slimmer profile, shelf thickness can be customized thicker or thinner for an additional fee.
Ideal Placement:
Nursery Reading Nook: Positioned beside a rocker, glider, or cozy floor rug to build an inviting Montessori-inspired bedtime routine.
Toddler & Big-Kid Bedrooms: Keeps cherished fairy tales and bedtime plushies organized as children grow.
Playroom Corner: Creates an inspiring woodland theme that transforms clutter into an artistic vertical gallery.
Fully Customizable Dimensions: Nursery layouts and wall spaces vary. We offer full bespoke customization for total tree height, branch wingspan across either wall, shelf depth, and tier spacing. To customize this piece for your room's exact floor plan, please contact our customer support team for tailored design advice and a direct quote.
Honest Limitations & Child Safety: As an authentic solid wood creation, subtle natural variations - including minute grain movements, soft tone nuances, and minor timber expansion or contraction with seasonal room humidity - are natural hallmarks of real wood. For nursery safety, the rooted trunk base and individual branch brackets must be securely anchored directly into wall studs. Clean gently using a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, and avoid placing directly against heating vents.
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 ($1,175.25) and our tree bookshelf ($1,567.00), 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 — 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.
