LatheBear Woodcraft

Bespoke wood turned items, handmade in a small home workshop in Dublin Ireland

Welcome!

My name is Cathal and I make handcrafted gifts and everyday items. I am passionate about woodturning and all things woodcraft. I love to see the natural woodgrain come through in each piece I create. No two pieces are ever the same, which makes them so special and unique. My designs make great gifts, functional homewares and beautiful display pieces for your home.

Our wood is usually Irish hardwood, locally sourced and comes from storm felled trees, garden clearances or reclaimed timber.

What our customers say

Cathal's workmanship is supreme and the pieces he makes are practical and unique. I've bought pens, bowls and Snowmen to give as gifts and loved them so much that i reluctantly parted with them! My friends were delighted to receive them. So i treated myself to a beautiful bowl which i absolutely love. Biggest hit of the gifts was a bespoke pen with an inlay fiddle i ordered for my son as a Christmas gift. I look forward to some new pieces.

I bought snowmen at Christmas and i must say they were brilliant! Great touch on my table, will definitely be ordering again.

I ordered some custom pens from Cathal. My Dad loves Celtic designs so Cathal crafted into the ballpoint pen a Celtic Knot. My brother in-law played for the Dublin GAA team who won at the time of his playing, 1 all Ireland and 6 Leinster medals for Dublin. This pen i asked Cathal to come up with a design around the Dublin colours. The pen designed by Cathal had a light blue and a navy band on a black fountain pen. For my Mother and sister i purchased two ballpoint pens which were pink with diamond sparkles on the pens. And some of the purchase price went straight to cancer research. All pens came in beautiful presentation boxes. I fully recommend Cathal's workmanship, and i will be purchasing again from him.

Many Thanks Marcus Connolly
