Commissions

Owning a piece of finely crafted woodwork designed to specifically meet your needs is one of those intangible pleasures. The piece will be an investment that will enrich your life for years to come, and will likely become a cherished heirloom.

Fine studio furniture is constructed to last for generations. Fine furniture is usually significantly more expensive than mass-produced furniture because you are purchasing a unique and well-crafted item that will last much longer.

Commissioned furniture is the best way for the client to ensure that they get the furniture designed specifically for their needs and to their taste. With commissioned furniture, you can deal directly with the designer and craftsperson. Ordering a commissioned piece can start with an email, phone call, or letter. Creating a custom piece together offers a satisfaction that no store-bought piece could. A custom-made heirloom piece should fit you, your style, and the space.

Pricing of custom, handmade pieces is highly dependent on several variables, including material costs and design complexity. The time and skill involved in creating a piece are often overlooked in this world of mass production. If you value beauty, admire good design, and appreciate fine craftsmanship, my work is within your price range.
