This is a copy of an A&C chair made by William Morris, one of the founders of the Arts & Crafts movement in Europe. The chair is made of quarter sawn White oak, the back is 60" (5ft.) high, W is 20" and the seat is 19" high. This is excellent as a stand alone piece, dinning chair etc. I use it in my bedroom as a dressing stand.
Fox River Woodworking
We are a small family owned business located in the south east corner of Wisconsin. We have been making furniture and cabinets for over 30yr's, We don't particularly specialize in any one style of furniture, but I do favor Mission style. We make everything from custom Jewelry box's and humadors, to a complete line of furniture. If you can tell us what you want we can make it. We have complete wood shop. We mill all own stock from hand picked lumber. Every piece we make is hand crafted. We believe we don't just ship items, we also ship our reputation.
For my project, I needed a new media console that would fit my space, and allow me to add two subwoofers to my front stage in my living room home theater set up. I had an idea in my head, but no expertise in woodworking, and not wanting to pay for a store-bought item that could get higher than $2000.00. I came across Tom, who is only maybe 40 minutes from me. We worked back and forth making changes here and there, based off of my initial design. Tom was very patient with me, and explained areas that I didn't account for the thickness of the wood in my measurements. What I got was a beautiful, functional piece of furniture, for a good price, and was able to take money out of the hands of big box stores, and keep that money in the hands of a local craftsman. I 150% would use Tom again in the future, as I do have other ideas/plans. Tom has become my new "Wood Guy"! Thank you Tom!
It could not have gone better!!!!!!!
I had a great experience working with Thomas Ruetz. He is so patient and understanding. He will go above and beyond to make exactly what you need. Also, he is a very good communicator, replies to emails and answers all your questions. The whole project was such a pleasant experience for me. I highly recommend him.
I had two pedestals made for my dining room and I must say they are gorgeous. Once we were able to figure out exactly what I wanted he was able to execute it in a timely matter. We started in November and I wanted to get done before Christmas and of course he made sure that happened. Communication was excellent he responded to all emails and we even had a few phone conversations. In order for me to get them before Christmas he hand-delivered it, I was very happy. His prices are very reasonable. The next time I am looking to have something madevand I know that he would be able to do the job for me he is definitely the guy that I will hire.
Great transaction. Quality was exceptional. Pleasure to work with.
