About Us

I have been interested in woodworking since I was a child. My great-grandfather was a woodworker, his son (my grandfather), although he was an car mechanic, was helping my father, who is also a woodworker, with his work. My father has been involved in wood and woodwork all his life. Because of these teachers, woodworking has been a part of my life. Even as a young boy I was always making something and learning new things. Since I decided to study information technology in high school and college, as well as work as an analyst and programmer in a small Czech company, I didn't have much time for woodworking.

Time passed and I began to miss manual work more and more. I was thinking about what I could create out of wood. One day I got the idea to make Czech flags in the rustic style, which is very popular in the United States. The first four Czech flags saw the light of day in 2018.

I gave three of them to my closest friends and kept one as a memento of the first production. The flags became popular among friends, followed by the production of seven more and again gifting them to friends. The interest in the flags grew and I had the idea to use them for a good cause, maybe even to help someone. At the beginning of 2019, an idea was born in my head. I made thirty Czech flags and donated them to Poppies Association (Spolek Vlčí Máky). This is an organization that helps veterans in need. The Poppies Association auctioned part of the flags in auctions to raise funds to help those in need. The total price of the auctioned funds exceeded my expectations. The remaining flags are still waiting for auction and this is also the reason why we will not be involved in the production and sale of Czech flags in the near future. At the end of 2021 I took the first steps to create my own e-shop and called it, how else than WOODFLAG. It has been more than 4 years since the first flag was produced and in between I have tried different production processes to achieve maximum quality and efficiency. In the end, the whole family is involved in this project, from the manufacturing process and sourcing of materials to innovation and ideas.
