My passion is building museum quality, faithful reproductions of the finest 18th Century American Masterpieces. My goal as a period furniture maker is to capture the charm and spirit of the original model as well as its detail and durability, to the best of my ability. If I have done my job well it should be difficult to tell the difference between my reproduction and the original.
It is getting more and more difficult to obtain original masterpieces due to rarity and price. Many of the finest pieces are owned by museums that rarely decommission them and when they do the prices are astronomical. My reproductions are as well built as the original, because they are constructed with solid wood and the same joinery techniques. Furthermore, the details are as accurate and skilled as I can make them.
If you share my passion for the finest furniture ever built please contact me by phone or email to discuss what pieces are of interest to you.     -     Tony
