OUR STORY
IT STARTED WITH A DREAM…
tov (Hebrew):
Good, beautiful and functioning how the creator intended.
Tov & Co was birthed in 2018 with a dream of hand crafted furniture that embodied beauty, function, and meaning.
This dream was conceived years earlier, in the heart of a newly married Architecture student as she fell in love with making furniture in her humble living room.
Led by the quiet whisper in her heart, she took a leap of faith walking away from a promising Architecture career, to deep dive into mastering the crafts of woodworking and furniture design.
The following 3 years were spent apprenticing under a skilled master craftsman while learning to appreciate the skill, time and talent it takes to make the highest quality furniture. With hands busy on the tools, her mind was freed to wonder at the untapped possibilities in furniture design.
As her head hit the pillow, divine inspiration landed in her dreams like a kiss from heaven. Once she had tasted from this well of inspiration, no other project that she put her hand to would taste as sweet.
Thus began an expedition to capture these ephemeral dreams, translating them into the tangible, permanent realm. An exploration of heaven meeting earth.
