Black Walnut Tray

This was a wedding present for our good friends, Sheryll and Dan. It's made with black walnut and ash. Breakfast in bed? ;-)

Humpbacks Inspired Jewelry Box


We saw the most amazing display of whale behavior in Alaska - breaching, lob-tailing, pec-slapping . When we were finishing this jewelry box, we incorporated that into the pulls!

Made with walnut, maple, and ebony.

Helen's Dresser


This has got to be the most complicated piece of furniture we have ever built! It boasts 144 mortises, a maze-like web frame for the drawers, frame and panel sides, tapered legs, as well as stained espresso finish (just testing for the correct color took a week)! Needless to say, Helen is a very lucky girl for we will probably never make another dresser again!

Made with walnut and mahogany.

Liquor Cabinet


Since we made a home for our games, we decided that our liquor needs a home as well! Granted, this side cabinet may be used for dishes and such . . . but what's the fun in that? Glass of port, anyone? ;)

Butternut and Walnut Box


Another box made with butternut and walnut - we added ebony pulls!

Mah Jong Anyone?

Didn't we tell you that we loved games? Here is one you must learn to play if you haven't already! I would reckon that it's the most played game in the world - considering that it's the most popular game amongst the Chinese . . . ;-)

Made with Butternut and Walnut.

Game Center

We love games! From cards games such as Canasta and Wizard to board games such as Acquire and Risk . . . and everything in between . . . Scrabble, Cribbage, Mah Jong, etc. etc. So we made a cabinet so our games will have a home!

Made with black walnut and maple.
