For Storage Bed and Nightstands - Miller5.0I had a chest of drawers and dresser that I had purchased in Japan about 20 years ago and had always wanted matching night stands and storage bed with head and footboards. I gave Nathan some dimensions, a few pictures of the type of pieces I wanted and a sample of the Japanese furniture. I knew nothing about the wood or stain or finish used on the Japanese items but Nathan and his team got it perfect!! Even the way the wood was cut for the new pieces matched the grain patterns of the chest and dresser. It is truly remarkable and looks like an all original set. All through the process Nathan kept me updated and was adamant about the end result being exactly what I wanted. I was also privileged in living near Nathans shop so was able to hand deliver hardware I had picked out and was introduced to his coworkers. They're a great bunch of guys and the nicest people you could ever meet. Almost all of the furniture in my house is custom made and I have to say that this was truly the best experience in custom work I have ever had. It far exceeded my expectations!

For Lucy's doors5.0Working with Nathan was a truly wonderful experience in every way. He designed and built us a double-entry door and a single entry door, adapted from a rough design idea that we provided. Nathan sent us information, updates, and photos throughout the process, and provided us with premium delivery service. He was also exceedingly patient with the many questions we had as customers ordering hand-made products for the first time. Because of delays on our end, the doors have not been painted and installed, yet, but they look beautiful just standing against the wall! We will return to Nathan with all our future projects, and will recommend him to our friends, as well.
