Dining Set: Urban Organic Style
This is a set of dining table and chairs that would look as good in a contemporary urban loft as it would in a western lodge-style home. The table and four chairs can be customized for you in several ways: by your choice of hardwoods, the size and shape of the table, number of chairs, and whether the chairs have arms, or not. This set comes with 2 arm chairs and 2 armless chairs. The table expands with two leaves. The woods I used are walnut and curly maple, two of my favorite woods to use because they accent and compliment each other and age to beautiful patinas. The seats of the chairs are my signature style, hand carved to fit the human form. The curved back stays and shaped seats combine to make a chair that you really want to sit in -- even after dinner is over and you are sitting around talking with your guests, you will want to stay in these chairs. Let's talk about how I can make a set like this for your home and lifestyle. Maybe just the table, or even just one chair for your desk … or the whole set. I would be happy to work with you on customization.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I have been working professionally with wood for over 30 years. A native of Montana, I have always had an interest in art and wood working. I majored in philosophy and fine art at university, started a family, worked for the railroad as a carpenter for many years then opened my shop, Timothy's Fine Woodworking in 1982.
I am especially interested in expressing movement in my furniture, as well as exploring the natural elements of the wood. Early on I was influenced by the work of Tage Frid, George Nakashima and Sam Maloof. I often incorporate the live edge of the boards into my tables, and use the natural grain and color of different woods in my designs.
In addition to studio furniture, I also make custom cabinets and other custom furniture. I enjoy working with my customers, listening to what they want, and giving my attention to every detail, from the selection of the wood to the finished design. I try to honor the spirit of the material I use, in the finished pieces.
"I hope my art that people use everyday helps them reconnect to the spirit of the natural world."
