Built on trust, craftsmanship, and human connection
More than just wood. Building connections.
Handcrafted, one-of-a-kind items from Upper Austria for companies and partners who value quality, authenticity, and personal collaboration.
My name is Gerold, and I am the founder and manufacturer of Austrian Timber Bowl.
Each piece is handcrafted from regional woods. My goal is not only to create unique products, but also to build trusting partnerships and long-term relationships.
More than just wood. Building connections.
Every piece that leaves my workshop represents more than just quality craftsmanship.
It stands for regional materials, artisanal craftsmanship, and the belief that true collaboration is built on trust.
Small enough to stay personal.
Authentic enough to build trust.
Passionate enough to bring people together.
These values shape every partnership, every interaction, and every decision at Austrian Timber Bowl.
Whether it's a specialty retailer, a gallery, a course organizer, or a creative partner: It's important to me to build relationships based on openness, reliability, and mutual respect.
Let's create something special together.

Collaboration

Why Partners Work with Austrian Timber Bowl
Direct Exchange
You always speak directly with the manufacturer. It's personal, straightforward, and on equal footing.
Genuine Handcrafting
Each piece is handcrafted in my workshop near Linz from regionally sourced wood with a traceable origin.
Quality over quantity
I focus on meticulous craftsmanship, small batches, and products with character rather than mass production.
Trust as a Foundation
Successful collaboration is built on openness, reliability, and mutual respect.
Focus on Humanity
Behind every product are people, stories, and relationships. It is precisely this sense of connection that defines Austrian Timber Bowl.
Our Values
Small enough to stay personal.
Real enough to inspire trust.
Passionate enough to bring people together.
Respectful enough to treat everyone as an equal.
After all, true craftsmanship isn't created with just the hands.
It comes from trust.
Through appreciation.
Through encounters that bring people together.
This conviction is at the heart of every partnership, every conversation, and every piece that leaves my workshop.
What We Consciously Are Not
Austrian Timber Bowl will never be the largest workshop.
And that's okay.
After all, our goal is not growth at any cost, but rather quality, reliability, and personal relationships.
That is why we are mindful that:
no industrial mass production
No vendor offers the lowest price
not an anonymous distribution channel
A brand where personal contact isn't lost
We believe that exceptional products deserve time, attention, and true craftsmanship.
Let's create something special together
Every successful collaboration begins with a conversation.
If you value quality, authenticity, and long-term partnerships, I look forward to learning more about your ideas and projects.
Let's work together to create lasting value.
It's not just wooden objects that are created.
Stories come to life.
Connections are formed.
