A pair of tall side tables stand side by side to make a console. Hand crafted of black walnut and European steamed beech. Drawer fronts feature an inlay of end-grain heart pine from structural timbers salvaged during a renovation of my studio space. Walnut cases constructed with miter joints to display "waterfall" of continuous grain pattern from top wrapping to sides. Photos by James Alfalla

For Production TableRobyn is amazing! We love our table and she was a real pleasure to work with.

For Floating ShelvesI cannot say enough good things about Robyn and the work she preformed. I had her create custom shelves with each letter of my daughters name and a star. They came out perfectly. At the last minute, after all was painted, my wife decided she wanted a different color for the base of the shelves and Robyn accommodated us beautifully. Seeing as how I am local, Robyn even dropped off the shelves and gave me tips on how to best install them. I will definitely be using Robyn again when I need custom woodwork done. I would also recommend this craftswoman to all my friends

For Mid-century modern table lampRobyn was very easy to communicate with and made sure I got what I envisioned. I'm extremely happy with the end product and it's obvious that she takes great pride in her work. She is a true designer and craftswoman.

For Reclaimed wood table top (in Brooklyn)Incredible - after months of trying to purchase reclaimed lumber to build a table top on my own, I gave up and turned to Custom Made. I got a number of quotes, and while Robyn's was slightly higher than the others, her list of projects was impressive, she was local, and seemed very inquisitive about the details of my project and knowledgeable about potential options. She invited me to her studio to discuss everything, which was great, and during this meeting suggested a few options for the table's construction which I hadn't even thought of. She read my mind in the wood selection, and the final product was beautiful. She delivered on time, and I now have a beautiful, locally made, one-of-a-kind reclaimed wood table top which will last for years, at a great price. Feels so much better than going to some furniture store and buying something off the floor, or out of a catalog.
