That tree you drove past without a second thought is now watching you get dressed. 😂

Our Kabulonga client recently furnished her entire home in Mukwa.

Beds. Wardrobes. Tables. Mirrors. Every piece custom made for her space.

When guests walk through her door, they ask the same question:

"Where did you get all of this?"

This massive mirror was part of that story.

It can be part of yours too...

Until end of May only, get your custom Mukwa mirror for K2,990. Down from K3,490.

Your mirror will look like nothing else in the world. Because every tree is different.

K2,990 is the price of a good pair of shoes. Except the shoes wear out. This doesn't.

WhatsApp us. Let's add your home to the story.

She never asked for a thank you.

She just woke up early, stayed up late, and made sure you never felt the weight of what it cost her.

Today we say it louder than we ever have:

Thank you, Mama!!

For the sacrifices we saw. And the ones we never knew about.

Happy Mother's Day.

Not all wood is created equal.

Here's what you need to know about different types of wood before buying furniture.

PINE:
Soft, lightweight, and affordable. Easy to work with but scratches easily and doesn't handle humidity well. Best for light use pieces in dry spaces.

ROSEWOOD:
One of the most beautiful woods in the world. Deep grain, rich colour, incredible durability. Rare, expensive and is highly regulated. Thus it is pften imitated but rarely matched.

TEAK:
The gold standard for outdoor and high traffic furniture. Naturally resistant to water, insects, and warping. A teak piece maintained well can last 50+ years. This is generational furniture.

MUKWA:
Zambia's own hardwood. Dense, rich reddish-brown grain, naturally resistant to rot and pests. It's been used in Zambian homes for decades because it simply doesn't give up. This is the wood your grandfather's furniture that still exists was made from.

At The Mukwa House, we build in Mukwa and Teak. The two hardwoods that earn their place in a serious home.

Gatherings feel different when the table itself tells a story.

This Mukwa dining set found its new home recently.

It's crafted for comfort & built for connection.

We are eternally grateful to our client for letting us be part of their space.

When a tree is cut, it reveals rings.

One ring = every year of its life.

Light ring = fast growth during the rainy season.

Dark ring = slow growth during the dry season.

Together they make one year.

Count the rings. That's the tree's approximate age.

A tree with 40 rings lived through 40 rainy seasons. 40 dry seasons. 40 years of standing through storms, drought and sun before it became your table.
