Hand-Carved Walnut Side Chair
Based on the Charles Brock/Sam Maloof Bowtie Stool, this is sculpted entirely from 2" thick walnut with wenge plugs on the joints. Seat is 16" square and a standard 19" from the floor with the back reaching to a comfortable 30" to provide solid support for the lower/middle back or as an arm rest. Finish is a wax and linseed oil blend which augments the color, provides protection and gives an exceptionally smooth feel without building a thick barrier experienced with most lacquer/poly varnishes.

Good Morning. My name is Matthew White and I've been a woodworker since 1998. I'm mostly self-taught and I've been adding to my skills ever since.
By day I'm in the Air Force and I found woodworking to be an excellent creative release. It's also given me the opportunity to give back to those who have served.
I've burned murals for conference centers, built shadow boxes for retired Chiefs, and had my work grace offices in Washington D.C. I've had my work presented to Colonels and Airmen completing basic training.
It has been an awesome experience to share and I'm always open to a new project or challenge.

For Whiskey Bottle Presentation Box5.0Matthew did an amazing job on my project. He was very timely with his responses. We had a little back and forth to make sure I was happy with how he was planning to make my project. I'm thrilled with the end product. I would work with Matthew again if another project comes up.

For Custom Badge Shadowbox5.0Wow, Matt truly has a gift! The finished product was exactly as envisioned and discussed, and the time and attention he devoted to every last detail was evident throughout the project. Aside from his expert craftsmanship, he went above and beyond to ensure he had all the details of the desired outcome and communicated exceptionally well as the project progressed, giving status updates along with photos of the work in progress. Five of five stars across the board - I would definitely work with Matt again! You will be glad you did too!

For Marshall's Dungeons & Dragons Dice Box4.7This will be my first and possibly only review as I only got on Custom Made for two items, both of which are completed. I am happy with this box and I never thought it would be possible until now.
I thank the creator as he was professional and orderly, this was completed in a timely manner as it was well within the time limit. They delivery was however strange but not to the owner, I just don’t recommend UPS at times but that’s because I live in the boonies.
I recommend this creator and hope more projects in his way. As for me, thank you and goodbye, you have been a great help.
