Solid Hickory Bar Top / Island Top

$2,500

A beautiful kitchen should have an amazing island top. This hickory top was developed as the perfect compliment to the clients granite countertops and hickory cabinetry. We used a unique process to build the top long, and then cut the ends to fold under and glue back on to create a traditional 2+" countertop edge, the sides were capped with 2" hickory to finish the top off. The hole top sits on an MDF plate atop the cabinetry to allow for expansion and afford the top room to breath with the seasons. This top can be made in a variety of wood species and sizes.

  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

Our focus on furniture happened many years ago (25+) as a result of some left-over lumber, the need for a bench by the backdoor, and a frugal resourceful nature that told us to give it a try. The bench turned out beautiful (we still use it every day), the experiment turned to a hobby, the hobby to an obsession, the obsession to a journey… We design and build custom furniture on commission. Our shop specializes in made to order custom furniture specifically for individual clients.

    This was my first project and the whole process went very smooth. Amy is very detailed and made it easy for me from the beginning to completion.
    My project was completed very fast, only within a couple of weeks exceeding my expectation. Great quality and reasonable price as well.

    I just received my dining room set earlier this week, and I am thrilled with it. It isn't just furniture; it's a work of art! Amy did an amazing job, and she was a pleasure to work with. Ordering custom furniture was a first with me, but I saw a picture of this set and knew it was what I wanted after years of looking. Amy was so patient and helpful--she answered all of my questions, and made suggestions and recommendations when I needed some help deciding what wood to use. She walked me through the process and kept me fully updated. I couldn't have had a better experience, and will not hesitate to work with her again for future furniture needs.

    I cannot say more positive things about this maker! Amy was so easy to work with & her communication was exceptional! My custom sink cover is beyond beautiful & it will be a highlight in my kitchen. There was an issue regarding color and Amy was not only extremely professional but made the situation right. Her priority was making me happy & I cannot express how much that was appreciated. I would definitely buy from this maker again & I would highly recommend her to others.
