Black Walnut Candlesticks

Fuugs is a small, sustainably dedicated, locally based, hand built wooden furniture company. We offer a catalog of beautiful, durable and sustainable designs to people ready to invest in an alternative to the disposable products of box stores. Since 2016 we have worked to create furniture that stands out both for its radical approach to material sourcing and for the artful design that blends aesthetic and functionality. Our material is reclaimed by us from urban trees that we save from the waste stream, sequestering carbon in our furniture to make all of our products truly carbon negative. The design comes from the minds of sculptors and partners in life and business, Greg Fuguet and Kristen Snow. Alumni of Tyler School of Art’s Sculpture program, we have honed our craft for a decade into furniture that changes how we engage with the world. Inspiration for our designs comes from the fellow Pennsylvania natives Wharton Esherick and George Nakashima, as well as Danish Modernism, Mid-century Modernism, and the Shakers. Everything is made by hand in our Philadelphia studio. We use beeswax and pure linseed oil to finish our furniture, which makes it durable, easily repairable and totally safe. Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or to customize your order.
