Longleaf Pine Credenza

$4,000
Living Room
Sideboards & Credenzas

This credenza houses a large laser printer and a lateral file cabinet. It was crafted from longleaf pine and has mahogany pulls and feet. It was finished with 7 coats of General Finishes clear topcoat. The entire carcass is of solid wood and was joined together using box joints, allowing the entire piece to move together with seasonal expansion and contraction. The drawer pulls match the profile of the credenza feet, creating an interesting, contemporary design. Note the grain-matching across all surfaces, particularly the drawer fronts. In designing this piece, I enjoyed making something contemporary out of a wood that is more typically associated with a rustic or country design. It makes the piece a little whimsical or contrarian, I'm not sure which. Since those are moods I feel frequently, it could be both.

    John made 2 very large cherry picture frames for me. Communication during the process went smoothly. John completed the frames on time for an extremely reasonable price. John is very easy to work with, and the frames look wonderful!

    John provide great value for the excellent work he performed for me. My project was a live-edge table top. He joined my planks together with a seamless seam, along with corrections for a warp in my boards. I am thoroughly satisfied with the final project. I would highly recommend Lone Star Artisans for their craftsmanship and customer service. Thanks for a job well done.

    Working with John was a pleasure from beginning to end. He was in constant communication, prompt with his work and his craftsmanship was worth every penny. I wanted something one of kind to be a wedding gift for a family member, something for them to treasure for years to come. John fulfilled that wish with care, flexibility and professionalism. I will order from John again and again.
