Eldred Wheeler Furniture

Eldred Wheeler has made handcrafted 18th century reproductions for 40 years. Founded by Emmett Eldred and Bill Wheeler in the 70's - the company was one of the first to build fine 18th century handcrafted reproductions of pieces built in the late 1700's outside major urban areas in New England. This was the first truly original American Furniture created in the colonies.

We select and use fine cherry and tiger maple boards and handplane every surface with scrapers to replicate the patina of an original of the period. We have a famous for our finish which involves many steps including application of water based stains, shellac, lacquer, and a special toner. Our brass is all hand-filed brass from the finest reproduction brass makers.

A book was written about us by founder Emmett Eldred called "Eldred Wheeler: A Collector's Guide" If you are looking for fine reproductions that in every way replicate an antique made in New England - we are your solution.
