Louis Fry -- commissioning work

Two hundred years ago, what did people do when they wanted fine furniture? They went directly to the craftsman and had it made to order. You may not realize that you can do the same today, but you can!

As a highly skilled designer/craftsman, I can offer you a wonderful alternative to manufactured, mass produced, and even antique furniture. I can design and make pieces specially tailored to your home or work environment, and you can be involved in the process.

Here is how we do it:

Let your imagination go. What would you ask for if you could have a piece made just the way you wanted it? Think about functional features. Also, think about size, color, location, etc.

Don't worry if you are not good at design. That is my job. I will ask you questions that will help guide us through the process. It's creative and fun.

Be open to the natural beauty of wood. Wood is such a lovely material that I seldom stain, pickle, or paint it. I am sure that I can show you one or a combination of woods that you will like. My clear finishes are durable and beautiful.

Contact me. We will discuss your ideas, and I will give you a realistic idea of the costs involved.

Before beginning any project, I will provide you with scale drawings, complete price quotation, finish samples and a completion date.

My clients find it exciting to be involved in the process of having their own furniture made. So, if you are ready for the adventure, go back to step

, and let your imagination go! Together, we can make your ideas a reality.

We are able to crate up any piece of furniture and have it shipped just about anywhere in the world.

The joinery in every piece of furniture is warranted for the lifetime of the original owner. If the joinery fails at any time due to defects in materials or craftsmanship, we will repair or replace the piece at our expense.
