about Woods and Wax

Woods & Wax was created by Jonathan Riedel out of a simple idea: if you can’t find products made the way you believe they should be, make them yourself.

ith a long-standing passion for handcrafted woodworking and natural candles, Jonathan searched for cutting boards and beeswax candles that felt honest, well-made, and built to last. What he found instead were mass-produced items, synthetic materials, and shortcuts that didn’t reflect the quality or care he valued. So he went back to the workshop and started creating his own.

Woods & Wax was born from that pursuit of craftsmanship. Every wood cutting board is made from carefully selected hardwoods and shaped with function and longevity in mind. Every beeswax candle is crafted using pure American beeswax, free from additives and fillers, for a clean, natural burn.

What began as a personal project quickly grew into a brand rooted in simplicity, durability, and intention. Woods & Wax exists to offer thoughtfully made products that feel good to use, look good in your home, and stand the test of time.

No mass production. No unnecessary extras. Just quality materials, traditional methods, and products made the right way.
