Custom Made Seating - Vermont Furniture Maker, Brookside Woodworking

Contemporary Bench

This bench was formed from a single large slab of Sapele. The ends are designed to look as I they are carved out of a single piece and have fooled many eyes while the seat is dovetailed into them to form a very sturdy place to sit.
Oak bedroom built-ins

This wall unit, in 7 pieces, was custom designed for a space in a newly added bedroom. The center unit houses a TV and is flanked by two bookcases. The window seats feature additional storage and the small drawer units on the end house small keepsakes and what have you.
Curly Birch Morris Chair and Ottoman

This version is in curly red and yellow birch with ebony accents. You can see why it is one of my favorite woods. The vertical elements are curly red birch and the horizontal elements are curly yellow birch. Like all my Morris chairs, the cushions are a luxurious foam core wrapped in down. With the four position adjustable back rest, this set is as comfortable as it is beautiful
Walnut and Leather Bench

This is an entry bench to match the end tables for the customer’s Manhattan condo. It is also walnut with a leather seat. The large center drawer is for mittens etc. and the cubbies at either end are for boots.
Straight Arm Morris Chair

This is a chair I have wanted to make for some time and recently got the opportunity. A lot of thought and trial and error went into the design. It is every bit as comfortable as my Bow-Arm version and includes some style variations. Shown in Sapele.
Bow-Arm Morris Chair and Ottoman

Steam-bent arms and luxurious foam and down cushions make this set not only timeless, but incredibly comfortable. (If I do say so myself!)
