Trestle Table

$6,450

The inspiration for this piece came from a table I grew up with that was built by my father. I took his trestle form and brought my own design aesthetic. The trestle dining table pictured features gentle tapers and facets, is made from solid mahogany, and is finished with hand rubbed linseed oil and wax. The dimensions shown are 76 L x 36 W x 30 H.

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I began my woodworking career in 1992 after taking a guitar building course in Rockport Maine. Following were nine years as a carpenter before attending The Center For Furniture Craftsmanship, a furniture making school in 2001. I opened my shop in Red Hook Brooklyn that same year and have been making custom furniture, cabinetry, and mill work for the past thirteen years. My shop is now located in historic Wethersfield CT.

I have also enjoyed writing on the subject of woodworking and have had several articles featured in Fine Woodworking Magazine as well as a video series on dovetail joinery techniques. My furniture has been featured in two design books by the Taunton Press.

Over the past 13 years I have been commissioned to make a wide range of custom work. My shop routinely crafts custom furniture, high end cabinetry, custom doors, both interior and exterior, and mill work. I have also worked on some very special jewelry projects for both Julius Cohen Jewelers in NYC and Mish New York.

I welcome the challenges of design as much as the fabrication process. Every design that I produce is modeled and rendered in 3D space. The customer gets to see a photographically real image of the piece before it is constructed. This allows for any issues to be resolved before a project is built.
