Mortise & Tenon Woodcrafts

Greetings, I'm a furniture fabricator from just outside Seattle, Washington. I have always been a creative fellow, who basically would find a reason to build something. Anything and everything. When I started fabricating, I would build smaller stuff because I didn't really know what I was doing. So I started reading, watching old timers and getting a thirst to create bigger and better. What started as a rinky dink night stand turned into a full dining room table, and it just progressed from there to bigger and better things.

I now am at the point where I take on projects which are incredibly beautiful and simple. I don't really have a genre of design that I fit into, but is more just how I perceive beauty and functionality. I enjoy the things that take a little more time on my end to produce; This being the joinery. Complex joinery is something which has always caught my eye and it is something that I like to showcase in my work. I also do however enjoy constructing larger pieces such as dining room tables, where the joinery is hidden, but is still there to make the piece something that can be handed down to the customers children. Something that will last.

Something that I have focused on, but not limited to is furniture that can be used. Furniture that has a purpose beyond looking great. I'm wanting my customers to be able to look at something and say "that's amazing" and not be afraid to use it out of fear of damaging it. Because when everything is built right, it will hold up. Life and memories are supposed to happen on furniture. Whether it be dings from your children's birthday party, or a ring left over from a wine glass from an event you had the night before. This is life. Life is great and life should be lived. Just like your furniture. It should live and show the life that it has led.

With that being said, I take every step to make sure that your furniture will hold up. From the finish that I put on, to the type of joinery that I use. I do exactly what needs to be done, to give you exactly what you want. So you don't have to step into a big box store and settle for something that, to be quite honest, you don't want.
