Wooden handicrafts encompass a broad range of objects made from wood, shaped and decorated for aesthetic or functional purposes. The creation of these items often involves skilled manual labor and artistic design.

Material

The primary material is wood, sourced from diverse tree species, both hardwood and softwood.

Hardwoods: (e.g., oak, maple, walnut, cherry, rosewood, ebony) are denser, more durable, and generally used for furniture, carving, and items requiring strength and longevity.
Softwoods: (e.g., pine, cedar, fir, spruce) are lighter, easier to work with, and frequently used for decorative items, toys, and less structurally demanding pieces.
Other Woods: Bamboo, balsa, and various regional species are also utilized.
Finishes: Wood is often treated with finishes like varnish, lacquer, paint, oil, wax, or stain to protect it, enhance its appearance, and improve its durability.
