Behind the Wood
For five decades, Rene Chouinard has been transforming the finest hardwoods into heirloom-quality pieces from his workshop in Winthrop by the sea. Each item – from intricately designed charcuterie boards to personalized step stools – reflects his unwavering commitment to quality and the joy he finds in his craft. Working with cherry, maple, oak, hickory, walnut, mahogany, purple heart, ebony, and other select woods, Rene creates pieces that are both functional and beautiful, designed to be cherished for generations.
