Specializing in Shaker, Arts & Crafts and Original Design Furniture

Meticulously crafting one of a kind, heirloom quality furniture in my Vermont studio for over 40 years.

Meet Bob

Much of my furniture is inspired by Shaker, Mission, and Arts and Crafts Style as well as modern day masters: Sam Maloof, George Nakashima, and James Krenov. I believe in simple, functional furniture meticulously crafted with quality materials. I take great pride in the selection of the wood and the time-consuming task of placement and matching of grain and color. I refer to this as composing the piece.

My furniture is designed and executed using traditional woodworking joinery and tools.

I work in a wide variety of hardwoods from applewood to zebrawood, so long as it is harvested by sustainable methods. Cherry, walnut, maple, and birch are the woods I most often use. Frequently combining them with figured woods such as birdseye maple, tiger maple, curly maple, curly cherry, and flame birch.

As you move around my site, please keep in mind that I am a custom furniture maker and what you see here are just samples of some of the pieces I have created since 1979. You can order an identical piece, modify a design slightly or substantially, or work with me to come up with a totally new piece. That is the beauty of custom furniture: you get exactly what you want.

I welcome your inquiries.

Bob
