We believe a guitar stand should be worthy of the instrument it holds.

How Stories In Wood Began

From A Frustrating Stand
To A Better Design

Stories In Wood began with a simple problem: guitar stands did their job, but they were awkward, unstable and rarely looked at home beside the instruments they carried.

The Idea

A Stand Worth Looking At

In 2012, Liam became tired of placing his guitars on cheaply made, unstable metal stands that looked completely out of place in the home.

The Development

Two Years Of Refinement

Drawing on his background in carpentry, woodworking and product development, Liam spent two years creating, testing and refining countless prototypes.

Made One At A Time

What began as a stand for Liam’s own guitars became a Melbourne workshop creating handcrafted pieces for guitarists around the world.

Meet The Maker

Designed By A Guitarist.
Built By A Woodworker.

I started Stories In Wood because I wanted a better place to keep and display my own guitars—something solid, beautifully made and designed to belong in the room.

My background in carpentry and woodworking gave me the skills to build it, but being a guitarist shaped the way every detail was considered. The balance, contact points, materials and proportions all had to work properly before the stand could look right.

That approach still guides everything we make today. Every piece is designed to be useful, durable and worthy of the instruments musicians care about most.

What Matters To Us

Designed With Purpose.
Made Without Compromise.

Every decision—from the timber we select to the final finish—is made with strength, protection, appearance and longevity in mind.

Real Materials

Every component is carefully selected and considered before it becomes part of a stand. We design from the material outward, ensuring strength, balance and visual harmony.

Made By Hand

Our stands and accessories are shaped, assembled, finished and inspected by hand in our Melbourne workshop—not mass-produced on an overseas factory line.

Thoughtful Design

Every curve, joint and contact point serves a purpose. Our products are designed to display your guitar beautifully while supporting and protecting it properly.

Quality At A Fair Price

Stories In Wood is a family-operated business. Careful workmanship, strict quality standards and honest value remain at the heart of everything we make.

Built From Real Materials

Timber With
Its Own Story

Australian Hardwoods

We work with carefully selected Australian timbers chosen for their strength, distinctive grain and natural warmth.

Carefully Sourced Timber

Timber is purchased through established suppliers and responsible importers, with care given to both its quality and origin.

No Two Pieces Identical

Natural variation in grain and colour means every Stories In Wood piece has its own character rather than the uniform appearance of a mass-produced product.

Designed To Last

We choose materials and construction methods intended to provide lasting strength, stability and beauty for years to come.

The Goal Has Never Changed

A Better Home For Your Guitar

From the first prototype to every stand leaving our Melbourne workshop today, the idea remains the same: create something practical, beautifully made and worthy of displaying the guitar you love.
