Downtown High Boy Dresser
Even though traditionally we tend to veer away from square boxes and linear furniture,
this variation on the Chinese box was irresistible.
The piece it is composed of eight drawers,
a number whose symbol is used to denote infinity and is easy to remember.
Its drawers increment in size from top to bottom so as to allow proper storage of mostly everything .
The legs are hand forged metal braces that hug the wood structure making the piece virtually unbreakable,
and its pullers are hand forged metal tear drops.
Construction Notes:
The dovetail technique is characteristic of our drawer assembly which in this case uses 3/4 inch cedar.
The sliders are heavy duty so you can stuff to your hearts content,
and all the wood is hand rubbed.... our signature finish .

Ashford Oval Extension Table
This mansion sized dining table takes its named after Lord Ashford from the fluted leg carvings originally designed for him in India. We called it oval because to comfortably give ample elbow room to 14 guests, an oval half moon is attached at each end of the table. Many extension tables spend most of the year un-extended. And we rather not weaken a lovingly built top by cutting it in half. Plus the home of the table’s commissioner was being built near a salty air environment which to us ruled out metal hardware extensions. So we designed the half moon extensions to fit and lock into the skirts at the ends of the table while robustly supported two wood beams which disappear when not in use. The table looks finished both in its normal and extended conditions. Dimensions: 85"l x 39"w x 30 1/2"hProduct details...

Grapevine China Cabinet
This piece was designed for a party loving couple who’s business is a winery. So the grapevine carving in the crown was a must. The piece was to be installed at a Caribbean beach estate. Natural cane doors were de rigeur. We gave it four drawers large enough to store silver and linen services for 16 guests while four cabinets have ample room to keep wine flowing during long weekend festivities. The china hutch was done in beveled glass to display china. To fit your needs, the piece can be customized in many way, for example the doors can be done in solid wood and the crown could display your carved coat of arms.Product details...
Heraldic Crest Console
This piece was commissioned to us by a German descent family of noble lineage. Their coat of arms dated to the 17th Century and it was rich with complex symbols. So we understated the console to make the carving of the crest the focus of the piece. The woods and the hand rubbed finish were our tools of choice. Since it was a custom piece the dimensions are in a grand scale. It has shelves inside the drawers for ample storage space.Product details...
Neo Empire Dining Table
This piece was born from the legs which came to me like in a vision. With the help of our master carpenter I started drawing until we got a tapered, rounded, sexy leg. Then we proportioned the ring which was to interface the leg to the table’s skirt. Stepping back to examine our work we discovered a bold, strong leg asking for attention. So we decided to give it room to show off by making a table large enough for 10 persons. When completed, we had a well proportioned table anchored by the legs fit for a the castle’s emperor. Construction Notes: We start with four pieces one inch thick by thirteen inch wide by nine feet long. For this table we get the wood before gets to the saw mill. The legs are hand lathed and the finish is hand rubbed producing the sensuous, baby’s cheek finish. Dimensions: 90 ½ inches long by 48 inches wide and by 30 inches highProduct details...
Parenthesis Dining Room Set
Because we love the 45 degree joint when we first started thinking of a new table, the Parsons concept came to mind, but that has ben done. So we started with a blank and one goal: the legs would dominate and contain the table. Our final legs were both straight and angular outside and rounded inside. The unique internal carving gives the legs a slick, thought out look. Like with all our tables the top is done in mahogany so the grain is rich. The curvy chairs establish a contrast with the restrained table. The backs of the chairs seem slightly tilted against the straight lines of the table, their back is designed with two different faces, their backs are not mirror images of their front. The skirt and legs of the chairs suggest a parentheses which gave the name to the set.Product details...
