Chairs, tables, and casegoods,
built once.

I make tables, chairs, and casegoods to commission. Solid hardwood: white oak, walnut, cherry, joined by hand. I work alone, hand tools where they matter. Typical $2,400 to $3,720, 12 to 20 weeks lead time, books open Q1 2027.

The studio

Owen's Hudson Valley workshop, wood pieces and hand tools filling a daylit bench room.

One maker. Two or three pieces a year.

I work alone in a small shop in Hudson, NY, mostly to commission. Lead times run 12–20 weeks. If you have a room and a need in mind, I'd be glad to talk through what's possible.
