Live Edge Hutch
This is the second in a series of pieces whose form is dictated by the natural edge of the walnut top. In this case the door is shaped to follow the contour of the top. It is veneered with book matched slices of claro walnut crotch figure. The side panels are also book matched claro, from the same plank. The result is a luminescence. It seems to glow with its own light.

Pierce Getsinger
Oxford Woodworks
My goal in woodworking is to build utilitarian objects that also fascinate the eye. I build heirloom pieces of figured lumber. Hopefully, these pieces will enliven interior spaces for generations. I enjoy the challenge of designing a piece to fit a specific need, but I am also comfortable working with designs by architects and other designers.

Dec 20, 2014We are extremely happy with our new live edge chest. The project went very smoothly, and we enjoyed working with Pierce. Preliminary discussion of the materials and the expected time frame was easily completed without confusion. Communication during the process was excellent. Packed well and arriving a few days following completion, the stunning final product is a perfect size with beautiful lines. We would love to work with Pierce on a future project.

Jul 17, 2012Pierce Getsinger at Oxford Woodworks is an outstanding craftsman. He was very patient with us as we went back and forth to custom design our pulpit to accommodate both function and aesthetics. We are very pleased with the results! Great pieces of furniture at a fair price. Win-win!
