Great service

I love wood. I always have. Its grain, figuration, texture and color to me seem like abstract paintings. Wood is strong yet resilient. Solid wood is natural. I only use solid wood, never veneer or plywood.
I design and build beautiful tables, each one custom-designed to suit the particular needs and preferences of each client. Beautiful tables begin with beautiful wood. Fortunately, I have sources for high quality wood, every board of which I hand-select. Clients are welcome to come with me to help select the actual wood for their table.
My background includes 50 years of woodworking experience plus fine art and engineering which enable my designs to take into account both aesthetics and functionality. Thus, my tables are both attractive and comfortable in use.
Prices depend on the size of the table and the cost of the wood. Consultation and design are free -- there is no cost or obligation until the project actually begins. I ship or deliver from my workshop in Merion, PA near Philadelphia.

For Live Edge Black Walnut Table Trivet5.0Hello World,
My project request resulted in perfection. The end product was exactly what I desired and is working as intended. I searched for several weeks to find an off the shelf solution. Found customade, requested my project. Fredric Blum Design created my vision, communicated often and answered all of my questions. My trivets are wall art, but completely functional. I imagine his mainline products are fabulous to behold.

For Live Edge Walnut Table With Turquoise Inlay5.0Working with Fred was a pleasure. I've given 5 stars in each category even though shipping did not apply in my case because I opted to pick up my table rather than have it shipped. It was obvious to me from his initial proposal that Fred is a passionate craftsman. The design process involved a lot of communication back and forth and Fred provided helpful suggestions but allowed me to feel I was really designing my own one of a kind piece. It was also obvious to me that he was enjoying the process as much as I was! In the end I picked up a beautiful walnut live edge table inlaid with turquoise that is a showpiece in my home. I highly recommend Fred's expertise and artistry!
