Our Story

Light, made
by hand.

Oniew is a small studio with a stubborn belief — that the light in your home should be as considered as everything else in it. So we design and build each piece ourselves, in solid wood, lit with a warm and quiet glow.

How it began

It started with a single piece of wood.

We were tired of lighting that felt disposable — thin plastic, cold light, a thousand identical units. One evening in the workshop, we cut a single column of solid timber, ran a warm strip of light along its edge, and switched off the room.

It glowed. The grain came alive. It felt less like a fixture and more like something you'd keep for years — and want to pass on.

That piece became the first Oniew. Every one since is still designed in-house and finished by hand — sanded, oiled and checked by the same people who dreamed it up. We're not a factory. We're designers and makers who care, maybe a little too much, about how a room feels at night.

From the studio

“Every piece that leaves our workshop carries a little of the hands that made it. That's the part you can't mass-produce — and the part we hope you feel every time you switch it on.”
— The makers at Oniew

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Is it really solid wood? +

Yes — 100% solid natural wood, hand-finished. Because it's real timber and not MDF or veneer, the grain and tone of your piece are subtly one of a kind.

How is it lit? +

A warm, dimmable LED is built into every piece. It's plug-and-play with the included adapter, and most designs mount either vertically or horizontally.

Where do you ship, and how long does it take? +

Everything is handcrafted to order and shipped worldwide in 7–12 business days, fully tracked.

Are prices final? Any hidden fees? +

No surprises — the price you see already includes taxes, and shipping is free. What you see is what you pay.

Returns & warranty? +

7-day returns on unused pieces, and every piece is backed by our 3-year guarantee on the wood and 1-year on the electricals.
