Furniture Maker Statement

The elegant simplicity of the Shaker form serves as a guiding light in my design philosophy. Infusing this timeless aesthetic with a modern sensibility, I create pieces that not only pay homage to the past but also seamlessly integrate into the contemporary world, meeting the needs of today's living spaces.

In each creation, I meticulously work with solid hardwoods, carefully considering the unique grain patterns and figures of each board. This thoughtful approach ensures that every piece not only possesses aesthetic appeal but also serves its intended function with unwavering quality. The dedication to utilizing only the finest materials reflects my commitment to craftsmanship that withstands the test of time.

The craftsmanship of bygone eras comes to life in my work through the application of pegged, mortise and tenon, and dovetail joinery. These time-honored techniques contribute not only to the structural integrity of each piece but also guarantee a robustness that ensures the longevity of my creations for generations to come.

Every piece I craft is a labor of love, individually made by my hands and bearing the mark of authenticity – signed and dated. This personal touch not only establishes a connection between the artisan and the artifact but also signifies a commitment to creating enduring heirlooms that tell a story of craftsmanship, tradition, and timeless beauty.
