About Us

To give a little background, we are a home-based husband and wife team with two wonderful children living in Seguin, TX. 

Owning our own business has always been in our hearts to do. It's been quite a journey! In 2021 we started selling our goods to our family's storefront, Primitive Design Company in Seguin, TX. We love our products and sharing them with others who love them just as much as we do! It's truly a blessing to be able to do something we love, and we pray each day to continue to grow.

Seguin, Texas is the place we call home. It is the place we married and bought our first home. It is where my son lost his first tooth and started school. It is where my daughter was born, took her first steps, and started talking. It is home to the beautiful Blackjack Oak trees and Guadalupe River. What name could be more fitting for us than River & Oak? An ode to our home and our most special memories.

Sergio is our oh so talented leather guy! He specializes in handcrafted leather goods ranging from coasters to holsters, handbags to coozies. He cuts, dyes, and stitches everything by hand. He is truly a natural and a master of his craft. He is a meticulous worker, a perfectionist, extremely creative and one of the most friendly humans ever! Leatherwork to him, is a calming escape after a long day at his full time job, as well as all the general craziness in this world. Sergio loves to get creative with custom orders for clients!

Naomi is our awesome candle lady! She specializes in hand-poured coco-apricot blend candles, wax melts, and room sprays.  She absolutely loves being a chandler and being able to make people happy with the simple light of a wick. She puts a lot of thought and love into her products. Her goal is to make your home a place you never want to leave, and a place where people always give a compliment. She loves to get creative with scent blends, candle collections, and customize candles just for you! As a stay at home mom, Naomi also finds candle making a much needed escape from all the craziness! Its so calming and really puts her mind at ease. Her goal for 2022 is to start a skin/body care line.

Our children, Colton and Ella, love to watch Mommy and Daddy work! Colton, the oldest, absolutely loves the science behind candle making! Just like his Momma! He is so creative and loves to help where he can. Ella, our youngest, LOVES to smell all the leather and knows how to use some of the leather-working  tools thanks to Daddy!
