The Vision, A Small Desk Or Entry Table

Darrin is great! He provided me with great ideas and and possible alternatives in wood. The option I ended up selected looks FABULOUS!
The packaging for the table is amazing! There was no damage whatsoever to the table -- I don't think there could have been unless the box was crushed! :-)

I am extremely pleased with my purchase and how it turned out.

Darrin, thank you so very much for a splendid job!

This craftsman was very informative throughout the entire process. He often forwarded pictures showing the progress. The product was PERFECT. He missed his deadline by a few days, but this was ok because I was not in a rush to receive this. The table was packed perfectly and arrived quickly. LOVE the table and would highly recommend this craftsman.

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 crafted a gorgeous Arts and Crafts-style console table that I gave to my husband as a Christmas present. The craftsmanship is utterly sublime -- it is absolutely perfect. The joinery and finish are silky smooth and flawless. The table looks as though it was made by Berkeley Mills, from whose pieces I drew inspiration in communicating to Darrin what I wanted.

As for communication, Darrin "listened" attentively to what I wanted and asked me a number of questions aimed at ensuring I would be satisfied. He left nothing to chance.

When the piece arrived at my house, I was seriously impressed at the extreme care with which it had been packaged for transport, which included being wrapped in a moving blanket and plastic moving wrap and then placed in a sturdy box that had been reinforced on all sides with rigid panels and styrofoam.

It's reassuring to know that fine wood artisans like Darrin are still around and making the world a bit more beautiful with each of their creations. I highly and enthusiastically recommend Darrin to anyone looking for fine wood craftsmanship, and I plan to use him again myself in the future.
