Custom-made fireplace insert for our own home — crafted from a blend of walnut and cedar. The warm walnut grain and lighter, aromatic cedar complement each other, creating a balanced, refined look. Precision fit over the existing brick gives a seamless appearance, elevating the hearth to feel like a million dollars while preserving the character of the original masonry.

Custom-built wine rack for a client. Took precise measurements on site, then built the unit in the shop for a perfect fit. Constructed from knotty alder and finished with a darker stain to enhance the grain and warm, rustic character. Designed to maximize storage while maintaining easy bottle access; joinery and construction ensure long-term stability. Finished with a protective topcoat for durability and an even sheen that complements existing cabinetry.

Restoring and adding height to a 200‑year‑old table

A 200‑year‑old table carries generations of meals, conversations and quiet work. Its surface bears the gentle scars of everyday life; its joints remember hands that shaped family stories. When a piece like this returns to the workshop, the aim is not to erase its history but to stabilize, protect, and gently adapt it so it can continue to serve a modern family.
