Heirloom Custom Woodworks

My passion is designing and building custom hardwood furniture. I excel in designing unique one-of-a kind pieces that are unavailable in furniture showrooms. My designs are tailored to my clients’ needs for functionality, style and fine craftsmanship. I use the best hardwoods available and take great care in selecting lumber for its color, pattern and character so it compliments and flows with the designs. In 1972, my Father established The Heirloom Shop in New York City. Initially, it was a furniture stripping operation and antique retail store, but the little storefront business quickly grew to specialize in furniture repair, refinishing and custom furniture. It was in that environment that I learned about furniture construction and building techniques. Captured by the beauty and character of wood, I became intrigued by the challenge of designed one-of-a-kind pieces that highlight and integrate the figure, texture and color of natural wood. I came the appreciate the value of sound construction, attractive design and functionality of the pieces; tailored to the customer’s requirements and design preferences. After 35 years designing and building custom furniture, my passion for the craft continues. The natural variations that occur in woods of all species, coupled with the specific requirements of clients; continue to inspire the design and construction of the custom pieces that will simplify your current needs and become treasured family heirlooms. My goal is to continue to design and build high quality furniture that is satisfying in the way it appears and functions, furniture that is built to last and be appreciated as an heirloom and a connection between generations.
