Plots & Pickles Originals
Our own designs, handmade from reclaimed timber. The same design every time, but never the same piece twice.
Unloved timber, made loved again
Every Original starts as something that was heading for the tip.
Rescued, then remade
Old units and furniture that nobody wanted, saved and rebuilt into something new from solid reclaimed timber.
Same design, never the same twice
Each Original is a design I make again and again. The grain, colour and character come from the timber, so every piece is unique.
A nod to the past
Art Deco step shelves, mid-century lines and old-fashioned joinery, built to be used and handed down.
Made in the workshop
Handmade in Auckland from reclaimed timber.

Is every piece the same?
The design is the same each time, but the reclaimed timber is different, so the grain and colour of every piece is unique. Photos show an example, and I am happy to show you the exact piece before you buy.
What timber do you use?
Reclaimed solid timbers such as oak, rimu and kauri, taken from old furniture and units. Where a product has a timber option, you can choose it when you order.
Can you make something that is not listed?
Yes. Custom builds and commissions are a big part of what I do. Start with the custom builds page.
Where do you deliver?
Within New Zealand for now. I am working on international shipping, starting with smaller pieces.
