What I do

For over thirty-five years, I've experimented with the infinite possibilities of design in wood furniture. During this time my work has evolved through several styles as I've discovered new ways to express myself through furniture making. I remain committed to making the finest, most visually interesting and functional, hand made furniture at the best possible prices.





My Philosophy of Design

I believe in "clean" design without ornamentation. A simple form can take on a sophisticated look when the natural elements of the wood such as grain and color are taken into consideration during the design process. In addition, sanding the wood to an extremely fine level and applying pure natural finishes make the end result very special. Also, as a rule I do not use endangered or rare woods but rely on the standard species that grow in New England where I work. Although it can be time consuming, all joinery is made by hand. It's more interesting to do it that way and the resulting slight irregularities give the work a more warm and comforting look. My work is all about patience, for the maker and also the client. While it may take some time for me to create your unique piece of furniture, it will continue to provide great pleasure through its beauty and functionality for very many years to come, making the wait more than worthwhile. That is my guarantee.
