Four feet tall carved walnut cross, by 2 feet wide. Art Nouveau style.
A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.
Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
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.

For Tina's walking stickI love the cane I ordered from Ralph. He kept me updated on every detail. Listened to what I wanted and has an amazing eye for detail. I will be recommending him in the future to al my friends and family.
David Jagger
For Karate God BusaganashiI am extremely pleased with my Busaganashi. Working with Ralph was a pleasure and I would certainly work with him again on other projects and give him a strong recommendation for anyone looking for quality work.
COLLEEN SEAMON
For COLLEEN's SignMy only concern is our name is spelled wrong on the sign. It should be Seamon not Seaman.

For I owe you an apologyRalph is a true artist. He will go above and beyond what you expect to make the project you really want. For him, quality is best and he will not cut on details.
I will definitely work again with him (I'm actually working with him on a project of 52 chess pieces), and am glad to have him to make this project come to reality.
The value you will get is extraordinary, as well as the professionalism and expertise you will benefit from when working with him. Timeliness and shipping also are on point.
Communication is essential and Ralph will keep you informed. Even when we had a small miscommunication (which wasted some of Ralph's time), he fixed the detail (even if he didn't need to) to give me an amazing piece!
I cannot give 6 stars (unfortunately, even though he deserves them) so I'll have to settle by giving Ralph 5 stars.
Marc Grasley
For Marc's Harry Potter Golden Snitch Engagement Ring BoxRalph was in constant communication and allowed me to be very involved with the creation process. He also sent various illustrations and pictures as he worked on my project. Upon completion, my project was sent and received within the time frame we agreed on. He did a great job and would definitely work with him again!
