A closer look at the shop
Meet our maker
Meet Wei Zheng, the maker behind Cobble, and discover a lifelong love of turning everyday materials into objects to cherish and use.
Our First Market
Our very first market at Trinity Bellwoods Park — sunshine, curious visitors, and cups hung from branches.
Sunday Workshop #1
Our first free Sunday workshop — five guests, tiny books stacked into a house, and Wei guiding every cut.
Sunday Workshop #2
Two more guests, the same miniature scenes, and a lesson in reading the grain that ran until almost dinnertime.
Sunday Workshop #3
Our third free Sunday workshop, with a few different woods to try — no two trees are exactly alike.
The Scent That Stays
A note from a customer, three weeks into daily use — on coffee, walnut grain, and a fragrance that doesn't fade.
Brand Story — Born of Wood
Time that has passed ultimately takes form as a wooden object. The story behind Cobble, from first cut to finished vessel.
The Craft Behind the Cup
Wooden cups shaped by hand — each one a quiet record of the maker's patience and the material's grain.
From Wood to Hand — Inside the Workshop
A morning among the gouges and shavings, where a single block slowly becomes something to hold.
Light & Shadow — Objects at Rest
On the quiet hour when a cup is not in use, and the way daylight settles into its grain.
