The pet furniture world is having a moment. Scroll through Etsy and you'll find hundreds of dog crate furniture pieces — wooden, decorative, functional. But when The Guardian took notice of the trend, one name stood out.
"Lots of furniture designers are selling similar dog crate furniture on Etsy. Tolotun dog house makes mid-century modern dog crates that look more like kooky 1970s display cabinets."
— The Guardian, June 2025
Not Just a Crate. A Statement Piece.
At Tolotun, we've always believed your dog's space should be as thoughtfully designed as the rest of your home. Our crates draw from the bold geometry, warm wood tones, and playful character of mid-century modern design — the kind of furniture that makes guests ask "where did you get that?" before they even notice the dog inside.
Why We're Different
Mass-produced pet furniture is everywhere. Tolotun crates are handcrafted to order in our workshop — each piece built with attention to joinery, finish, and proportion. No flat-pack. No compromise.
While Etsy offers variety, Tolotun offers intention. Every crate is designed to live alongside your furniture, not just next to it.
The 1970s Cabinet Look — On Purpose
That "kooky display cabinet" energy The Guardian mentioned? That's not a coincidence. We lean into the warm, eclectic spirit of 1970s Scandinavian and American furniture design — rounded edges, slatted panels, natural oak finishes. It's retro-informed, but built for modern homes.
