In 2015, Matt knew he wanted to propose. The ring was chosen, the moment planned, but a bulky jeweller's box is hard to hide. So he made his own. Slim, elegant, crafted by hand. That box became the beginning of Woodsbury.

"I wanted to create something as special as the ring itself. A box that adds to the moment and makes the memories of the day last forever.”

From there, it became about getting every detail right. Drawings, tests, materials considered and reconsidered, until the Woodsbury engagement box was exactly what it needed to be.

Beyond Woodsbury, Matt is the founder of Mat & Kin - a workshop dedicated to designing and crafting high-end furniture, guided by a belief in functional beauty and the enduring value of things made well. That same eye for craft, material, and meaning shapes every box Woodsbury makes.

Ten years on, each one still made by hand. In the Woodsbury workshop, in Sydney.
