Pencil & Oak: South African Craftsmanship Rooted in Calm, Care, and Timeless Design
There’s something grounding about furniture that feels like it truly belongs – pieces that don’t just fill a space, but breathe life into it. That’s the essence of Pencil & Oak, a proudly South African brand rooted in craftsmanship, calm, and connection to the landscape of the Cape Winelands.
Founded in 2021, Pencil & Oak specialises in custom-made furniture that’s thoughtfully designed and meticulously handcrafted by a dedicated team of designers, carpenters, and seamstresses. With a factory in Brackenfell and showrooms in Drakenstein Centre and Tyger Valley, the brand offers a tactile, local alternative to mass-produced imports. Every item reflects a respect for quality materials and a commitment to timeless design.
The Pencil & Oak philosophy is simple: create beautiful furniture, offer personal service, and make the process feel effortless. Whether working with clients on a single-room refresh or a large-scale development, their in-house interior architect provides a tailor-made experience that brings each space to life – with clarity, creativity, and care.
Recently, the brand launched its first ready-made range of high-end furniture and decor – designed for those who value clean lines, soft finishes, and a natural sense of flow. It’s a fresh, relaxed take on modern living, one that invites tranquillity into every corner of the home.
As the official furniture partner of Val de Vie, Val de Vie Properties, and Val de Vie Evergreen, Pencil & Oak continues to shape interiors that are as welcoming as they are refined – always with the individual in mind.
