Traditionally crafted fine furniture, custom furniture, and furniture design. As a traditional woodworker, all of my work is done using only hand tools.

I have a passion for designing and creating original, heirloom-quality pieces of furniture that are influenced by the classic American and English furniture styles popular in furniture's "Golden Age". Most of them are antiques that impart their own history to the art that they shape through

About this time last year, I completed a self-study project on the 17th century art of Western Lacquerwork, commonly referred to as, "Japanning". The designs and process were taken from Parker and Stalker's text, "A Treatise of Japanning and Varnishing".

Using nasty chemicals isn't good for your health or your fine furniture. The humble-yet versatile cabinet scraper strips the finish without the mess or the hazmat suit.

Even Buddha needs healing sometimes... In this case he needed a new finger.
