    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I specialize in reproductions and interpretations of traditional American furniture styles, including the William & Mary, Queen Anne, Chippendale and Federal furniture eras. I also have a great admiration for Art Deco furniture and have worked in more contemporary styles. I will work in any style so long as the design will not sacrifice the integrity and durability of the piece. I demand my work be of the highest quality but I still try to ensure it is very competitively priced within the market.

Each new commission begins with a discussion of wood and a selection of the finest traditionally used hardwoods chosen for their grain orientation and figure. With access to wide stock (some boards 20" and wider) I rarely need to glue up panels. This eliminates unsightly seems and allows the natural pattern of the grain to play out over the full width of a table top or the side of a chest of drawers as the case may be. My pieces will utilize traditional joinery methods from hand-cut dovetails to pinned mortise and tenon construction. All carvings are done by hand. My federal furniture designs feature the finest quality veneers, shop made bandings, and inlay for dramatic grain effects and are always used over solid hardwood substrates. I am a craftsman and a throwback to a time when furniture was built with integrity and not merely efficiency, I believe in quality and that a piece of furniture, made properly, should last several generations. I encourage you to commission your own heirloom with the beauty of an antique and the smooth function of something brand new. Finally, it is my sincerest hope that you will use and admire your piece on a daily basis and pass it down in your family for generations as many of the originals that were so well loved have been.

I will hand deliver and install pieces to customers within a days travel distance. For those customers that are further away, pieces may be blanket wrapped and crated for safe transport.

I encourage you to visit the website and welcome you to email me with any inquiries that you may have and I will make a effort to answers you as quickly as possible. Cheers.
