furnishings of intoxicating beauty
Working alone, I state working alone because nearly everything that I design and make are works of art made by me alone and signed by me for 20+ years, Ralph produces furnishings and signs rebelling against "mechanical mediocrity" refusing to work within the limitations imposed by machines and produce objets d'art which can only be accomplished with many hours/days/weeks/months of hand tooling.
To summarize, I am an artisan, not merely a furniture maker. Thank you for your interest in my fascination.

Feb 14, 2015Ralph was very helpful during the process. It was a bit slower than I thought it would be, but that probably reflects me and not Ralph. The final product looks great and I can't wait to see it. My only concern is that both Ralph and I are busy and it is difficult to get a day/time to have him deliver the final work. I would recommend that Custom Made include in their options a shipping option where the final product can be shipped to the client by overnight delivery. This way I could already be enjoying the final product which is a gift to my wife - I was hoping to give it to her for Valentine's Day

Aug 5, 2016The finished product was beautiful and well made. He did a great job communicating with me despite computer problems. He worked right up to the wire to complete the project and made the deadline. I couldn't be happier with the end result!

Aug 5, 2014Ralph of Furnishings of Intoxicating Beauty was a pleasure to work with and the project turned out better than I even imagined. He is a true craftsman/artist, and it shows in the quality of his work. Ralph carefully considered the choice of materials and design elements while I planned the project.. and the piece is beautiful! I would without doubt work with him again on any custom wood working project in the future. Just a great experience!! Mike
