Our Story
Our Story
From Digital Frames to Golden Grains.
Roots in the Soil of Thrissur.
Lijesh’s journey began in the quiet village of Orumanayur, near Chavakkad. Growing up, the rhythm of his father’s woodworking shop was his daily soundtrack. He didn’t just inherit tools; he inherited a deep respect for the Jackwood trees of Kerala and the patience required to shape them into art.
The Editor’s Eye
Before WOCA, Lijesh spent over a decade as a professional multimedia editor. His world was one of pixels, frame rates, and visual storytelling. This “Editor’s Eye”—the obsessive attention to detail and the search for the perfect finish—is exactly what defines WOCA products today. Every piece is “edited” until it reaches perfection.
The 2020 Awakening
In 2020, as the digital world paused, Lijesh returned to the tactile world of wood. Picking up his father’s weathered chisels, he began crafting simple kitchen essentials from the Jackwood in his own backyard. This pivot wasn’t just a hobby; it was a realization that our homes needed something more honest, natural, and safe.
The Vision Forward
Before WOCA, Lijesh spent over a decade as a professional multimedia editor. His world was one of pixels, frame rates, and visual storytelling. This “Editor’s Eye”—the obsessive attention to detail and the search for the perfect finish—is exactly what defines WOCA products today. Every piece is “edited” until it reaches perfection.
I grew up to the rhythm of my father’s chisel, learning that wood isn’t just a material—it’s a legacy. WOCA is my return to those roots, bringing the honesty of a traditional Thrissur workshop into the modern home.
