Our work is the work of dedicated, talented craftsmen. Michael and Judy are self-taught, and have been involved in creative furniture making since 1984. Our three children have been taught by us, and work full time in the shop. We live very rural, and practice sustainability at every level. As we produce our own wood, we also produce 90% of our food. Each summer we plant 2 acres of garden and orchard. With this, we fill several 24 cu. Ft. freezers and several thousand canning jars.
OUR COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE, MINIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT, AND SUSTAINABILITY IS ABSOLUTE.
We have no desire to chase the ephemeral treasures of greater production and ever-increasing volume. Our satisfaction and contentment is undeniably evident in our work.

Meticulous handwork is evident everywhere on this piece. Carefully selected and matched components, for a balanced and pleasing look.

Superb, hand rubbed, finish. The aniline dye and multiple coats of hand rubbed lacquer put this in a class by themselves.

The Bed is made from Quartersawn Oak. The stretcher boards are over an inch thick. We do not use thinner,4/4 lumber. All of our work is cut from thicker 5/4" (one and a quarter inches at the start) boards. These beds are made one at a time. All the joints are hand cut, hand fitted, and cross-pinned with white oak dowels after gluing.

The beautiful paddle top, the gentle taper on the legs, and the delightful corbels, set this bed apart from any, "off the shelf" furniture.
The grain is very elegant and well matched. The finest construction and finish are evident throughout this piece.
ALL of our work is handmade, one piece at a time. We use machinery to produce the components. After that, there are far more chisels and hand planes used than power saws and sanders....
HANDMADE WITH A DEEP HAND RUBBED FINISH.Our colors are a favorite among Arts & Crafts antiques collectors.


We can supply many comments/references from prior customers. In 25 years of hand-crafting thousands of pieces of Arts and Crafts furniture, I have never had a dissatisfied customer. A complete measure of our talents and capabilities can be viewed on our web site.

Our Finish is second to none....It is Deep...Rich...and Elegant. We wet every part, and the finished piece, with hot water many times as we sand them, before staining. This raises the grain several times, and guarantees the finish will still be as elegant in 100 years as it is now....

Between each coat of the stain, sealer, glaze, and three coats of lacquer, we sand the piece with 320 grit for a FINISH THAT IS AS WONDERFUL TO FEEL AS IT IS TO SEE. FINALLY, We HAND RUB the entire piece with rubbing lubricant and FINE Scotchbrite pads for a JADE SMOOTH FINISH.

The nature of the type of DYES, and GLAZE that we use produces a finish that emphasizes the different texture in each board, rather than attempt to make every square inch the same color. This produces color patterns that match those found in early Mission antiques.
AS MUCH AS OUR FINISH BLENDS WITH ANTIQUES, IT IS A DURABLE, MODERN FINISH. WE USE THE FINEST VINYL SEALER AND WATER RESISTANT LACQUER. IT IS HIGHLY ALCOHOL AND WATER RESISTANT.

THIS IS AN ELEGANT AND WELL PROPORTIONED KING BED.
THIS BED IS BEAUTIFUL THROUGHOUT, IT WILL SATISFY THE MOST DISCRIMINATING TASTE.THIS IS GALLERY QUALITY HAND CRAFTED FURNITURE WITH A WONDERFUL HAND RUBBED FINISH.....IF YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH THE QUALITY, RETURN IT FOR A FULL REFUND.....NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
