Woodworking
Good woodworking is often subtle. Over the years, we’ve built many one-of-a-kind pieces for our clients, none of them generic. Some emphasize joinery, others celebrate the beauty of the wood grain. Whether it’s trim, built-ins, wall art, or smaller custom pieces, we want the details to reveal themselves gradually. This is the kind of work we believe is worth doing.
Wall art with preserved moss
Every gradual color in this Camel's Hump wall art is natural
Our client from Sierra Nevada wanted us to replicate their native view. The cherry sky slab was pretty impressive in size
Birdseye and curly maple all in one. Such grain is rather unique
This dining table does not have a single metal fastener in it. The top is attached to the frame with tapered dovetail joints (giveaway are walnut accent plugs along the edge)
Cherry legs with walnut accents. Note how walnut changes the angle on the inner sides
Five slabs joined as one
This Doug Fir was charred with fire on its stone facing narrow edge to protect against rot from condensation
Mt Mansfield as a table top
This ski room was built with Eastern White Cedar from rough sawn material. Book matched top doors, wood panels in the big doors, inset construction
Taphole maple for drawers. Found only in the land of maple syrup.
Camel's Hump cutting boards
This small detail on the edge reveals that walnut and maple are separate pieces and not inlay

Table legs start with four sides at the top and end with eight sides at the bottom
Top of a nightstand
Slightly elevated Craftsman trim in cherry
Gustav Stickley has developed the American Craftsman style over 120 years ago. In one form or another it is still the most popular style in Vermont homes
Decking is woodworking too
The fronts are made with book matched shop sawn veneer. Note the continuous grain
We build with mortise and tenon, a very strong joint.
This wall art looks small, but it is 8 feet tall.
