Built by Commission
Built by Commission
American Heritage Furniture Co. creates historically grounded 18th-century furniture, built entirely by hand using traditional period joinery. No nails ...
No screws.
Each piece is constructed one at a time, with a focus on proportion, structure, and quiet architectural presence—custom built for designers and private clients seeking enduring early American form.
American period cabinetmaking for timeless interiors.
The Workshop
American Heritage Furniture Co. is an independent workshop devoted to the design and construction of early American furniture, built one piece at a time.
Work is grounded in 18th-century methods, including mortise-and-tenon joinery, wooden pins, and hand-cut dovetails—executed without modern fasteners.
Materials are selected for stability, clarity, and long-term performance, allowing each piece to reflect both historical integrity and refined execution.
Painted work is executed on select maple for a smooth, even finish, while natural finishes are crafted from carefully chosen select cherry boards that emphasize grain without visual distraction.
The Collection
The pieces shown represent established forms developed through past commissions.
Each serves as a reference for proportion, structure, and presence. While no two pieces are identical, the collection provides a consistent architectural language from which custom work is developed.
All work is built to order, one piece at a time.
Begin a Commission
I work directly with designers and private clients on a limited number of commissions each year.
Projects begin with a conversation to understand the space, intent, and requirements. From there, I guide the design and construction process through completion.
If you feel my work may be a fit, I welcome an initial inquiry.
Commissions are limited each year.
