ABOUT THE PERRY BROTHERS
Timber & Torch Works
Woodwork + Welding Art
Hailing from the heart of Charlotte, NC, the Perry Brothers, Chris and Trevor, have long been synonymous with craftsmanship that marries tradition with innovation. Growing up amidst the rhythmic sounds of hammering and the aromatic scent of freshly hewn wood, their early years were marked by a profound appreciation for the art of creation.
Drawing inspiration from their surroundings, it was the allure of wine that truly captivated their imaginations. The elegant curves of a wine bottle, the rustic charm of a barrel, and the intricate design of a wine rack all became the muses for their woodworking and welding ventures. Every piece crafted by the duo reflects their passion for wine, capturing its essence and translating it into tangible art.
Trevor, with his meticulous eye for detail, specializes in woodworking. His creations, be it a mahogany wine cabinet or an oakwood tasting table, resonate with the warmth and richness of the wines they're designed around. Chris, on the other hand, is a maestro with metal. His welding works, from intricate wine racks to bespoke bottle holders, are not just functional but are sculptures in their own right.
Their works are more than just pieces of wood and metal; they are narratives of their love for wine, their dedication to craftsmanship, and their commitment to excellence.
For those seeking a blend of artistry and functionality, the creations of the Perry Brothers are more than just objects; they are experiences waiting to be cherished.
