Handmade artisanal goods custom created with respect
Hey Grant, Was at Prison Break Market today (visiting from America) to get a belt and was treated very well by Declan. I was curious about the use of the various leather-working tools and he graciously explained everything. You've got a great employee there and a hellava nice shop. Very inspiring. Next time through Johannesberg I'll pop in for something else. ~Joseph Hudson, NY

We recently purchased a wooden dog bed from Acorn & Anvil. I love that it is so easy to clean and is actually a gorgeous piece of furniture that is out on display instead of hidden away like the other scruffy dog beds before this one. The actual workmanship and attention to detail is exceptional!

I bought a wallet from Acorn and Anvil. It's really top quality. I have been look for a thin wallet and this one comes with loads of class. It's perfect for everyday use in this time where cards trump cash. But I have been able to store cash notes incase of emergency. I like the fact that it leaves a discreet sillouette, if any at all, in your pocket, thus not drawing attention to the fact that you're actually carrying a wallet. I ride a motorcycle and it fits into all my jacket pockets without creating an uncomfortable lump that presses into your stomach or chest. I'm super stoked.

Met Grant today who assisted me with shortening my belt and helping insert new holes. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his craft. I am very grateful for his assistance. The world could certainly use more people who take such a genuine interest in their clients. Thanks Grant.

This is to confirm that Grant did free floating shelves for our lounge in 2021. Quality of his work , wood quality and knowledge was excellent . We also asked him to send it down to our place in KZN - it was professionally wrapped and packed with all the necessary raw bolts and instructions for me to hang the shelves myself . There was no chance it could have got damaged and was delivered in perfect condition . We are very happy with our shelves and get complimented by our guests all the time - I would recommend Grant's quality of work and professionalism anytime !!

I can highly recommend Acorn and Anvil products. I had a pizza table made and from the time of engagement right to the point of delivery of the finished product, every aspect was of top notch quality. I am absolutely loving my pizza table, which I’ve realized can be used for so many options when having a dinner party. It’s also moveable which gives that flexibility to position it wherever you wish in the moment. I can certainly recommend this company for their wonderful service, brilliant design and excellent quality product!

We recently changed our patio and needed the perfect table top. Acorn & Anvil exceeded all expectations. Many happy memories will be made at this table, beautiful moments to be treasured at a table sporting exceptional workmanship. This is what true craftsmanship is … bringing the wood and our patio literally to “life”. Thank you to you and your team Grant!

Grant and his team delivers true craftsmanship. They recently installed a series of solid kiaat barn doors for us and every detail of this complicated job was executed with pride and perfection. Highly recommend.
