  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

  • Fast shipper

    Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.

  • Great service

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

For over four decades, we have enjoyed making award winning fine art, including oil painting, custom furniture and leather work.

Claudia studied the old masters styles of drawing and painting at The Atelier in Minneapolis, MN. She paints with feeling and passion with a specialization in two particular styles of combined impressionistic and abstract oil painting as well as still life. Her style has a bit of a whimsical feeling to it and her goal is to show the joy that she feels when she sees how God has created nature that she paints.

Denny uses lumber from local suppliers and saw mills. He has chosen to fill a market niche by utilizing reclaimed or lumber from trees from his customers that they find to be sentimental or historical in their families.

He looks for opportunities to work with clients who desire a new and fresh design in their furniture and leather work. All of these areas allow for a way to fill a need that often is not available in the retail market. For example, the picture of the kitchen table made of oak and granite were not available either in size or of materials and led to the chance to develop them both for personal use as well as for availability to customers who are interested.

Leather and wood furniture are especially great projects to work on with our clientele and we look forward to each persons ideas and input as we build together.

Thank you very much for considering working with us on your Custom Made project.

    I am very pleased with the timeliness, professionalism and quality of product in regard to my customized walnut vertical knife block. I very rarely provide product reviews, however Denny and his product impressed me so much I felt compelled to offer this review. I would not hesitate in contacting the Debner's for these custom products.

    Crafter was professional and easy to communicate with. Initially, I was looking for one thing, but due to budget constraints i had to rethink my idea. Crafter took time to help me with my idea and was able to incorporate changes and additions in order to give me a finished product that i was happy with. The finish product is golden, and i would definitely contact crafter again for future projects. A pleasure to work with.

    If we could give Debner Fine Art and Furniture 10 stars we would!!! We were in the market for an oversized end grain walnut cutting board. We had no luck finding this through big box stores. We did a search and found Debner Fine Art and Furniture. How lucky were we!! We reached out, got an immediate response, and described what we were looking for. We exchanged emails and inspiration pictures to get a quote. We then quickly went into production on our board. We were so impressed by the communication and collaboration. Our board was delivered today and just WOW!!! The craftsmanship and value are superior! This is truly an heirloom piece! Denny and Claudia were great to work with. Clearly they have great pride in their work, are extremely knowledgeable and talented!

    Denny & Claudia are an incredible team! They delivered our dining table on time and within budget. More than that, we came to them with an idea, a few pictures, and a pile of wood and they worked with us every step of the way to turn that into a dining room table we'll have for generations - truly a one of a kind masterpiece. This was a very sentimental project for us using 150 year old beams from my family farm in NY and they treated it as if it was their own. We can't thank them enough for the work they did but it's really the passion they put in to our table we're most thankful for. We give them the strongest recommendation possible! - Matthew & Estelle

    Over the years, I refined my idea for my perfect knife block. Exasperated with the ones I had, I looked for a custom woodworker and found Denny online. I am so very happy with what he made me. Essentially two knifeblocks, they are absolutely gorgeous! I now have a perfect home for all my knives. Denny was great at communicating throughout the process. He also sent interim photos and included cutting board wax to keep the knifeblocks beautiful for years to come. I wholeheartedly recommend Debner Fine Art and Furniture. It was such a pleasure working with Denny and I couldn't be more happy with my knifeblocks.

    I wanted a custom made cutting board for my wife's birthday. I selected Denny based on his previous reviews and it was a great choice. Denny was sincerely concerned about making a cutting board just for us. He asked great questions and made great suggestions. It was a pleasure to work with him. The final product is just what we hoped for-- simple and elegant at the same time. Thanks so much for the great experience.

    Im extremely pleased with the cutting board Denny made for me! My project took a few turns along the way, but each time I changed my mind on the design Denny was very patient and helped me with his expertise and creativity. He delivered the project ahead of schedule and its more than a cutting board, its a piece of art! I give Denny my highest recommendation and would use him again in the future.

    I highly recommend Debner Fine Art and Furniture Company. I ordered a walnut espresso 60x60 square table for my kitchen. Dennis and Claudia were an absolute pleasure to work with and the final product was simply beautiful. They did a wonderful job of keeping me updated on the progress of my project and completed the project ahead of schedule to accommodate a family visit. The quality of their work and customer service are outstanding. I look forward to working with them on future projects.

    I must express my total satisfaction with Denny and Claudia. They delivered early. The Quality of the item made was top. It is very very beautiful. I spoke to Denny numerous at his request to make sure he understood exactly what I wanted and needed. His Communication skills are top. He kept me abreast the entire time then arranged delivery. He then called to make sure the delivery was done well and the condition of the item was undamaged. If more people had this kind of pride in their work. Our country would be a better place. I am now proud to call Debner Fine Art and Funiture and its owners Denny and Claudia. A preferred Vendor of Beverly Hills Luxury Interiors and all of the Kenneth Bordewick Design Group. I am even more proud to call them my Friend. Thank you and warm regards Kenneth Bordewick

    Just got delivery on my cutting board today. Denny sent me photos of the cutting board once he completed it last week, but the photos just didn't do it justice. This cutting board is Stunning! Well crafted with an awesome color. We spoke to each other via phone for a number of times so that Denny made sure that I knew exactly what modifications he was making that ultimately made the cutting board even more attractive. During the manufacture of this board, Denny was a pleasure to work with bringing his experience on the building of other cutting boards to the table in advising me what would work well in creating this useful kitchen tool. This cutting board is a beautiful addition to my kitchen, and I will enjoy using it everyday for many years to come!

    I received my walnut tool caddy - it is absolutely gorgeous. I can't believe what beautiful craftsmanship - the dovetail joints were so intricately placed and the beeswax finish gives it a smooth, clean look. Denny was absolutely wonderful to work with - very professional and everything was done in a timely manner. It was safely packaged and arrived perfectly. It is so nice to have this handmade caddy to put our tools in - (so much better than the old plastic container)! My daughter and I were excited to receive the tool box, and when we got it, just couldn't believe the beautiful work - THANK you, Denny!!

    This was my first experience with 'Custom Made' and certainly my first with Debner. What I was looking for, I was not able to find anywhere else. I had a set of kitchen and steak knives commissioned for me, and I was looking for a custom knife block that was very rustic that would compliment the more refined look of the knives. Debner Fine Art and Furniture was excited about the project and offered lots of great ideas and suggestions. I got to review wood samples and was sent photos and status updates every step of the way. The finished product is AMAZING and is truly a work of art. I can't be happier with the entire process from start to finish. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

    From start to finish, Denny's interest, effort and expertise was perfect. He eagerly sought my input for our customized gift, then proceeded to efficiently and beautifully produce an exceptional and unique work of functional art [a two-sided meat/cheese board]. We will return to him for future purchases and we recommend Debner Fine Art and Furniture for an excellent experience and result. THANKS DENNY!

    The Debners did a great job. I ordered a knife block. They live 30 minutes from me so I was able to bring my knives to them and they made custom slots for me. They were in constant communication and never failed to deliver on there promises. Complete satisfaction.

    Denny not only provided a quality product, but installed it for us, going above and beyond what any other person we had found was able to offer. But THAT wasn't the why we chose Debner; Denny takes as much pride in the quality of his materials as he does with his production, which is a rare combination. Denny truly is a "Master Craftsman".
