Frequently Asked Questions

Custom furniture is an investment in quality, craftsmanship, and personalization. Unlike mass-produced furniture, our full custom pieces are handcrafted just for you using premium materials like sustainable domestic hardwoods and US-made steel. It takes a lot of time, equipment, and expertise to design and build pieces tailored to your vision, space, and lifestyle. This level of customization, combined with heirloom-quality construction, reflects the cost. You’re not just purchasing furniture—you’re investing in a piece of functional art built to last for generations.

Our process begins with an initial consultation, where we discuss your ideas, needs, and design preferences. We provide in-house design services and collaborate closely with you to specify details and create drawings. Once the design is finalized, we handcraft your piece with care and precision. Our typical lead times are:

Furniture orders: 6–14 weeks

Large Projects: up to 6 months (depending on scope)
