About Me
Jessa Pearson
Jessa is a woodworker, turner, and artist behind Beloved Designs Woodworking. Her work centers on salvaged and redeemed materials, with a particular love for the wild beauty of burl wood. She's drawn to imperfection, knots, scars, and grain patterns that tell stories, && she lets the material lead, allowing each piece to take shape through the process rather than strict design. For her, creating is a spiritual practice, an act of listening, honoring, and collaborating with the material. Her style blends clean lines with an instinctive resistance to traditional constraints, often creating forms that feel both familiar and unconventional. Whether she's turning bowls or shaping furniture, Jessa is most at home in the shop, covered in shavings and following wherever the wood leads.
Each piece I create is a reflection of my journey, infused with love, care, and the unique story of its creation. Thank you for visiting my page, and I hope my work resonates with you, bringing a piece of my world into your home.
Warmly,
Jessa
My Craftsmanship Philosophy
I believe every piece of wood has a story worth telling. Most of what I work with is redeemed, material others might pass over because of a knot, split, or so-called flaw. I see those marks as part of its character and intentionally highlight them, transforming what might be overlooked into something beautiful and lasting.
Each item is made with REAL wood and will have it’s own unique appearance. Wood has knots and cracks naturally, which adds to it’s character. Stain, paint, and finish shades will vary depending on the type of wood that is used. Each piece is truly one of a kind, and will vary slightly because of this.
Most of the wood is locally, sustainably sourced, and has been kiln dried. I sell surfaced, finished slabs as well as custom handcrafted furniture including coffee tables, end tables, desks and shelves, and handcrafted cutting boards and serving trays, boxes etc.
