This chair is based on several original Tidewater Virginia made chairs from the 1700s. This one is made of soild walnut and has a seat ready for final upholstery. Original chairs from this area were plain in style, well built, and often made of walnut. It is quite comfortable and would make a great side chair or dining chair. The finish is oil, shellac, and wax.

Hello, my name is Bryant White and I design, build and finish period and contemporary furniture. I am a professionally trained furniture maker taught by master craftsman Phil Lowe. While I specialize in reproduction work I am happy to build contemporary pieces as well. Each project starts with a consultation. I work with you to select a design, wood, color and finish for your hand crafted furniture. All pricing is dependent upon material, complexity and labor involved. Throughout the construction process, each piece is fit by hand to ensure the finest result. Only the best lumber is selected, resulting in a beautiful, eye-catching piece of furniture. All necessary hardware is purchased from quality manufacturers.
I also offer repair work, touch-up, french polishing, carving and inlay.
I take pride in my work. Corners are never cut and each piece of furniture is as valuable to me as it is to you. I look forward to working with you to create the next masterpiece for your home.
A guide to the best items from the best makers and the stories behind them.

For Reclaimed Lumber Dining Room TableWe had an antique piece of maple which was on a throw-away base. The wood was in unobtainable widths that we wanted to restore to a nice period style table and Bryant work around what we had, maximized the use of the very beautiful wood and create a beautiful table. He came and checked on it about a month after delivery to tune the coatings.
