Very modern Dresser with a mid century flair. It is a wonderful stand alone piece waiting to catch your eye each time you walk in the room. This dresser is made from Sapelé with Wengé trim and solid figured Maple drawer fronts. The pulls are custom made using the same woods the the dresser. This is a dresser I built for a specialty boutique in NYC selling TünrLAB socks and laces. Notice their name in inlay on the front top of their dresser! Your dresser could have a meaningful word inlaid into it - something to make it yours. As a display unit this needed to be strong, durable with long lasting hardware, and roomy enough to display things on the top without it looking cluttered. This dresser does just that. The top shelf allows you to put your photos or a mirror that won't get disturbed when you are using the drawers or main top. This dresser or something like it is MADE TO ORDER. *Under-mount soft close drawer guides. *Dovetailed solid maple drawers. This dresser is aprox. 41" wide by 18" deep, 43"high. Order yours today!

I have been living in the Pacific Northwest since 1991 and currently work in Portland, Oregon. Portland is a fast growing hub of creative energy and inspired Makers. I am one. For me, it has always been about line, shape, function and lets not forget . . . wood. I am awed by it's unique nature and delighted that I get the opportunity to work with it everyday. Each board and every species has it's own unique characteristics. A wild example is the Huon Pine from Tasmania. It is the oldest living tree on the planet at 10, 500 years. They start to reproduce 600 to 800 years of age. That helps put some perspective in the realm of us and them!
The intention behind my work is to highlight the qualities of each piece of wood I handle, to give it a new life, and to help us appreciate and see it for what it is. I am often given the great pleasure to make gifts for anniversaries, birthdays, holidays and just something sweet. What a special honor it is to be the maker of a gift! I get the sweet view of seeing a person love another. Isn't that what it's all about?
My background in both fine art and the construction industry has given me an unusual approach to woodworking and furniture making. I am an artist who makes usable, beautiful objects with wood that I hope will say something about us.
I have a BFA from Cooper Union in NYC, NY and was a contractor for over 15 years designing and remodeling homes in New York City, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Eugene, Oregon. While studying fine art and learning how to carve wood I also studied woodworking and cabinetry. Later I worked for a couple of architectural woodworking shops in Oregon where I learned in a commercial environment making one off custom work.
I make furniture, woodwork , sculpture, laptop stands, specialty boxes, jewelry and probably something else by the time you read this. I love to design and build my own work as well as contract commissions for clients. My passion lies in discovery and invention and the challenge to make something useful in the most beautiful way possible.
I hope you enjoy!

For Wood Wallet And Business Card HolderExtremely happy with my wood wallet. The quality and craftsmanship are impeccable and I have received numerous inquiries from people seeing me use it on how to get one. I am definitely ordering more for the holidays as these make unique and thoughtful gift ideas, especially since you can order them custom engraved.

For Playing Card Case To Hold 67 Cards!I ordered a custom sized box to fit a deck of 63 cards, and what I got blew away my expectations. The box fit the deck perfectly, and was gorgeously finished, with perfectly placed logo engraved, tight inlays, and clear craftsmanship. I placed the order and was in no real hurry, but due to unforeseen circumstances, it was a slow turn around. So I was offered a second box free! It was also absolutely gorgeous and well made. Throughout, communication was timely, addressed my concerns and questions clearly, and overall friendly and approachable. This artist is highly recommended, for her integrity as well as her craftsmanship.
