The Builders
The Amish have long been known for their fine craftsmanship in solid wood furniture. Each chair is carefully
hand built by the Amish who select only the finest hardwoods. They know the importance of a well constructed
furniture. They have large families and cannot afford to be buying cheap prefabricated furniture that will have
to be replace every few years. So quality furniture is of utmost importance! Furniture that they can be proud of
and hand down to their descendants as treasured heirlooms!
Solid Hardwood Furniture
At a time when mass
production and the use of synthetics and veneers has become the standard, we offer you solid wood furniture,
inside and out. Our Amish craftsmen pay personal attention to detail, quality, and craftsmanship instead of
volume. And because each piece is handcrafted, you can be assured that the furniture you purchase is made of the
highest quality wood.
We provide solid wood
furniture pieces to complement every room in your house. From tables, chairs, barstools, and hutches, to beds,
dressers and armoires, we've got a great selection of solid wood furniture for every style and budget. And every
piece of solid wood furniture is beautifully handcrafted by the Amish and finished with a catalyst finish, ready
to go right into the room of your choice upon delivery.
Since all our solid
wood furniture is custom made, we do not build until you, the customer, order and give us all the specs. Once
the order is placed, please allow 8-12 weeks for delivery. (which is an estimated time for arrival. We cannot
guarantee an exact date since it is contingent on many different factors.) For a rush order on your solid wood
furniture, please contact us and we will see if it's possible to expedite it.
Our handcrafted solid
hardwood furniture is generally available in oak or cherry wood. Some pieces are also available in quartersawn
oak, maple, maple, or hickory.
Select the finish that's
right for you. You can pick a light wood like maple, or a darker mahogany. Browse through the large variety of
solid wood tables, hutches, chairs, bedroom furniture, and office furniture to pick out the style and shade you
want. Customize your solid wood furniture for your home and to your satisfaction!
Select Your Wood
Oak wood is a naturally light wood with a prominent grain, which makes groves in the wood that you can
feel when you slide your finger across them. This grain is evident even with dark stains and usually appears
darker than the rest of the wood. Knots may occasionally appear in the wood, which add to its character.
Cherry wood has less grain and is quite smooth. It has a natural light red tone but can be stained to
create many appearances. Cherry has very small "pits" that are dark in appearance and create a dip in the wood.
Cherry naturally darkens with age and sometimes features contrasts in color. This is part of the charm of
cherry, and should be expected. Cherry wood comes naturally with sap wood (which is a lighter thread of wood
running through the cherry wood) In order to avoid seeing it we recommend selecting a light stain to cover it.
Cherry furniture is also very beautiful with a dark red stain.
Maple is naturally a light wood with very little grain that is quite smooth. Since Maple is such a dense
wood it does not absorb stain as well so is not recommended if you wish your furniture to be dark.
Walnut is a dark wood with a medium amount of grain that makes slight groves in the wood. Even with
different stains, the appearance of walnut does not change much. Knots may occasionally appear in the wood.
Hickory is a relatively light wood with a lot of grain. The appearance of natural hickory does vary from
a very light appearance to a medium dark appearance. These differences will show up on a piece of furniture.
The beauty and durability provided by solid hardwood is undeniable. It provides several unique benefits:
- Enduring value from one generation to another.
- Natural warmth that synthetics cannot give.
- Expression of each individual tree by its own unique color and grain.
Solid hardwood furniture can also be repaired if damaged because there is no veneer or artificial surface that
can be scraped or rubbed through.
Hardwoods are a natural fiber. Therefore, even furniture that has a good protective finish may swell or shrink
slightly from one season to another. With proper care, your solid wood furniture will bring you satisfaction for
years to come.
