Custom & Bespoke

Custom & bespoke wooden animals for your shop or brand

Yes, we make custom wooden animal figurines for shops: an exclusive design, your colours on an existing style, or an engraved base with your name or brand. We take custom orders from UK retailers, museum and visitor shops, pet businesses and companies.

Hand-carved wooden animal with an engraved base

What we can make

An exclusive animal or shape

Send us a photograph or reference image and we talk through a hand-carved, hand-painted figure designed for you. It suits a shop's own mascot, a breed that matters to your customers or a design nobody else stocks.

Your colours on an existing style

Choose a piece from the collection and change the colouring to suit your shop, your season or your brand. It is a quick way to offer something different without starting from a blank page.

Engraved bases

Some bases can be laser-engraved with a name, a date, a short phrase or your brand name. It works for corporate gifts, events, anniversaries and personalised lines in a shop.

A range made just for your site

Museum, attraction and garden shops can ask for an exclusive series that sits alongside the rest of their stock, designed around their animals, their story and their visitors.

Questions

Do you make custom wooden animal figurines for shops?

Yes. We take custom orders from UK retailers, museum and visitor shops, pet businesses and companies. That can be an exclusive design, new colours on an existing style, an engraved base or a series made for your shop. Send an enquiry with your idea and any reference images, and we reply with the next steps.

What is the minimum order for a custom design?

Minimums and pricing are agreed privately, based on the design and quantity, and we do not publish them on the site. Tell us roughly how many pieces you have in mind when you send your enquiry, and we will explain what is possible for that design before you commit to anything.

Do you charge for samples?

Yes. Sampling carries a sample fee, and we agree the amount with you privately before we start. A sample lets you check the design, colours and engraving before bulk production begins, and production only starts once you have approved it.

How long does a custom order take?

Sampling takes about 15 days, and bulk production takes about 30 days, counted from your sample approval. We agree the details with you when we confirm the design and quote, so you know what to expect before you decide to go ahead.

Can I order a single custom piece as a gift?

Custom orders on this page are for shops, organisations and brands ordering in quantity. If you want a single personalised piece for yourself or as a gift, please order through our Etsy shop, where several engravable pieces are available. This page and its enquiry form are for custom work in quantity, such as an exclusive design or a series for a shop.

Can you make a figure from my photograph?

Yes. Send a photograph or reference image of the animal, along with any details such as colouring or markings, and we discuss a hand-carved, hand-painted design based on it. We confirm the design with you first, then make a sample for you to approve.
