About the Artisan

My name is Chris Brinton — I’m a 26-year-old craftsman based in Elkton, Maryland, and the hands behind Soulcrafted Studios.

What began as a simple pursuit to earn extra income through carpentry quickly transformed into a deeper passion for the natural beauty found within hardwoods, both domestic and exotic. Over time, woodworking became far more than a skill — it became a calling to preserve, honor, and reimagine the materials we so often overlook.

At Soulcrafted Studios, every piece I create is made with purpose. I work exclusively with solid hardwoods, using natural oils and finishes to showcase each species' unique grain, color, and character — no stains, no shortcuts. From curly maple butcher block countertops to live-edge walnut dining tables, every build is an opportunity to give the tree a second life, one that will be admired, gathered around, and passed down.

Soulcrafted Studios exists to create furniture and spaces that last generations — made with heart, designed with intention, and rooted in timeless craftsmanship.
