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.
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!

Julie Fresne
For Julie's totem poleI asked to have a totem pole designed like a drawing I had. The totem pole arrived and it was EXACTLY like the drawing. It was a great job and the seller was communicative throughout the whole process. I would absolutely use the seller again.
Dorothy Flores
For Fantasy dragons & fariesRalph is very responsive but I'm not happy with my cane because he did not finish it and it's sloppy. There is glue on the cane that wasn't cleaned up and the faces on my fairies aren't finished being carved out. The cane really doesn't look like an experienced person made it.
Thomas Gulbrandsen
For Emperor Palpatine / Darth Insidious CaneVery happy with the finished product, the craftmanship is impressive and just what i needed to complete my costume. Good communication through the whole project. Would recommend to others seeking the same
