Items are one of kind and can be created to suit your taste. Bring us your ideas and let us see what we can do for you. A small, one man wood working company located in Nakusp British Columbia Canada specializing in Country Style furniture, Reproduction furniture, Vintage items, Restoration and Custom wood turning. I learned about furniture and wood turning while living in New Zealand for thirteen
years. Over the years I have worked in joinery shops and as a custom wood turning contractor making newel posts, balusters, table legs etc. All of my wood turnings are manually turned on the lathe and unique, as a result I can re-create almost any old or vintage spindle pattern. I developed a love of solid wood furniture in traditional designs. Most of my work is what I personally like or custom to meet the needs of my customers. Living in the West Kootenays of British Columbia, on the shores of Arrow Lake I am surrounded by an abundance of local wood. I prefer to source local wood from the Kootenays, when possible, and also salvage when practical. My furniture is hand crafted and finished with non-toxic paints, urethane and wax. I finish in natural, stained or distressed paint. Finish can be of a stain or colour of your choice. For specialty orders I usually ask for the number of a colour chip from a paint company and then finish to the colour requested. Some people gave me a photo of an item they wanted and I built to that photo. Others have requested different measurements to fit a particular space. I work with my customers to try to make them happy with my furniture so they will come back and also refer me to friends and family. I enjoy making fine furniture and I sell at as fair a price as will pay for my business needs. Some of the items I make are up to 50% lower cost than comparable items in expensive stores. This is because I sell at a wholesale price and then the store marks it up by as much as 100%. This means my products take longer to sell and neither I or my end customer benefit. If you have something you are interested in or if you see something in my gallery that you like please contact me and I would be happy to work out a price. Sprinkled in with the woodwork you will also find some fabric creations including quilts, bags and wall hangings.
