Mission Style Lectern

I bought these candlesticks as a gift for relatives who not only know Mission styles in great detail, but have also gradually redecorated their home to reflect their love of the style. I feel grateful that Patrick told me that genuine Mission pieces are made in oak, not cherry. My relatives immediately confirmed the accuracy of his work. We all admired the beauty of the candlesticks. The candlesticks were in regular use by the evening's meal. Are the candlesticks pricey? Yes. Might they be over-priced? Possibly. But in fact, I could not find any others with which to compare them. Overall I am extremely happy with the purchase!

I just received the candlestick holders. They are just what I expected. Excellent quality and nicely finished. Mr. Ashley communicated promptly through the process. They came well packaged and protected. These will be a beautiful addition to my Stickley dining room set and bring years of service. Thanks Patrick!

Communication is the best part about working with Patrick! If he had any question he immediately sent a message and was meticulous about making sure the finished product would meet my expectations. I was a little disappointed when I received my stand when I saw a very sharp protrusion on the side - to try and cover it would ruin the aesthetics of the piece. I work with young children and hope this isn't a problem. Delivery was delayed by 3 days because I wasn't asked if I would be home -- I was out of town and the shipment was in limbo. Make sure when your product is shipped that someone will be around all day to sign for the delivery.

We commissioned Patrick to build us an arts & crafts, hall end mirror. After some unforeseen set backs, Patrick sent us not just a mirror, but what we now consider to be a family heirloom. We could not be more thrilled and satisfied. We urge anyone who reads this to invite Patrick in to any discussion you may be having about custom furniture. He is a wizard!

It was extremely easy to work with Patrick on this project. He was open to the custom changes I needed (made out of cherry, and fit to hold a violin rather than a ukelele), and the final product was fantastic. It did take a bit longer than I initially hoped, but Patrick was up front with the time line and the final piece arrived at my door faster than initially estimated. The stand was well packaged and in great shape. It is a beautiful piece of work, and I am thrilled with the final result. It is my first time using the CustomMade website, and I will definitely try it out again.

Patrick really delivered on this projextra for us. He worked within a tight deadline and completely understood our concept and the finished product was beyond our expectations. The finished piece arrived with very minor imperfections...due to shipping..but was easily mendable. We are looking forward to using Patrick's wonderful talent with woodworking in future projects..he really knows his craft and spends that extra focus on a great attention to detail!! We highly recommend his services.

We are extremely happy with our new coffee table. The project went smoothly and we enjoyed working with Patrick. Preliminary discussion of the materials and the expected time frame was easily completed without confusion. The final product is a perfect size with beautiful lines. We would love to work with Patrick on a future project.

Working with Patrick was a first-rate experience. The final product was exactly what we spoke about. His 3D renderings of the complex mission desk are a picture-perfect match to the desk he created. I'm 400 miles from his shop so our only communication was via email and phone conversations. His response time was excellent and he was always open to slight changes throughout the project. I'd recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a craftsman to deliver what you ask of him. No regrets.

Working with Patrick at New Mission Workshop has been an amazing experience! Patrick is so creative and such a delight to work with. He has kept in constant communication with us which we have appreciated so very much, making suggestions, tweaking the original plan, and offering wonderful suggestions for improving the pieces he's done for us. He is a Master Woodworker. I'm already thinking up future projects for him to craft for us!!1

I had a wonderful experience working with Patrick, from New Mission Workshop via CustomMade. His style was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a cabinet to house my essential oils collection. I wanted a piece that had a classic look, constructed with good wood and excellent craftsmanship. He was very easy to work with and simply knew what he was doing. Any questions/issues were easily addressed and all steps to bring the project to completion came at a reasonable pace. Throughout the production process, he sent images of each stage and was very communicative. I am very pleased with my essential oils cabinet and would recommend Patrick for custom woodworking needs.

I'm enormously pleased with my New Mission Workshop cabinet. Patrick kept me updated throughout the project and offered a number of options for fittings and finish. The cabinet arrived well-packaged an in perfect condition. I'm excited about my new piece and looking forward to my next commission with Patrick. He has terrific design and construction skills and impeccable taste.
