As of December 2007 we have over 250 colors of leather and over 1000 colors and types of fabric available.

       There is a defined beauty that comes with handcrafted, or custom made furniture. If you have ever seen an antique dresser and appreciated the time and dedication it took to create such a marvelous piece of furniture you would also appreciate the craftsmanship of modern day artisans as well.

      Woodworking is an honorable art form. The men and women who practice this art and create durable, functional, and practical furniture are among a dying breed. The quality furniture that is produced by these talented wood workers is among the most beautifully creative, fashionably timeless and strongest ever.

If you think it is difficult to find a master carpenter who practices his craft by specializing in creating custom furniture, think again. Every town should have an abundance of custom furniture makers. Phone books and word of mouth are among the usual means a reliable woodworker will be found. A very established cabinet or furniture maker will not have to advertise.

The cost for custom furniture will be significantly more than you would pay for the more basic furniture found in a retail setting. The reason behind the price increase for custom furniture may seem obvious to some. To clarify the cost to those who just don't understand it begins with the very reason basic furniture is less expensive.

Custom furniture is one of a kind. There is no production line where countless tables are spun out on a daily basis. Custom furniture is unique and also crafted with care and with an attention to detail. The tools and space needed for a successful woodworking shop is part of the expenses that are passed on to customers. Learning the trade and being an apprentice for years only to then acquire years of on the job experience is what custom furniture is all about.

If you think you can't afford to purchase custom furniture you might be right. If you are looking to accentuate your entire home in custom furniture it can become quite costly. The thing about custom furniture it has a great resale value. What you pay for it today, though seemingly pricey, will likely be the least ever paid for a particular piece of furniture.
