Obvious

I had the boards laying on my workbench, and the way they were laid out it was obvious how to build this piece. With its figured Curly Cherry sides, Curly Maple back and Walnut legs it is a contemporary piece of functional art perfect as a display stand in the living room or den. The oil finish is a hand-rubbed finish that highlights the figured woods

The use of both domestic and exotic woods helps me to enhance the clean lines of my designs. I am influenced by a variety of styles from Shaker and Mission to Art Deco and Art Nouveau, blending them into a more contemporary style.
I have worked with wood for over 30 years, establishing VB Woodworks in 1996.
Along with designing and building custom furniture, I have a few limited productions and semi-custom lines with no two pieces exactly the same.

Consider this a rave review. Five stars plus. Darrin was especially easy to work with, he took his time in answering my questions and always made himself readily available. I chose to work with him based on photographs that were posted and that he sent of previous work and after speaking together I knew that he understood exactly what I was looking for. The craftsmanship of these pieces is beyond what I had expected, and believe me I had high expectations. Darrin created a writing desk with matching night stands out of walnut with contrasting sections done in Curley Maple with hand made drawer pulls. They are beautiful pieces of art that I will enjoy for many years. Thank you, Darrin!

Beautiful pieces of furniture. Our custom pieces are a nice addition to our sitting area. The wood selection is really special.

Darrin did a fabulous job on our project. He brings passion to woodworking and a “good ear”, which other reviewers had pointed out too. We were grateful that he considered how we would be using our pantry, and he included a way to anchor it, as well as a top piece that would make the piece easier to clean and offer a place for knick-knacks. We received mostly weekly updates with pictures, and found additional updates on Facebook. We would highly recommend Darrin for any of your project needs. We hope to hire him again too!
