Good Ancestor Woodworking
One-of-a-kind heirloom furniture
Pieces crafted as heirlooms that your loved ones will actually want to receive. We start by learning about your family's unique heritage and story. We identify wood and designs with significance to that story. Then we design a piece together to last seven generations. Ready to chat? Let's go!
Crafting Heritage Into Your Home
Every piece of wood tells a story. Together, we'll create furniture that speaks to your family's roots, using materials that echo your heritage - whether that's Oregon Pine that reminds you of your grandfather's Pacific Northwest home, or Cherry wood that connects to your family's Tennessee origins.
Traditional Sensibilities, Modern Taste
While our designs honor traditional craftsmanship from various cultural backgrounds, each piece is created for modern living. We blend time-tested joinery techniques with contemporary functionality, ensuring your furniture is both meaningful and practical for today's homes.
From Your Roots to Reality
Our journey begins with your story. I work closely with each client to understand their family's background, helping select woods and designs that reflect their cultural heritage. Every joint, curve, and finish is chosen to honor those connections while creating pieces that will become tomorrow's heirlooms.
Think Big, Think Small
Building an epic piece of furniture is great fun, but I can also help you create meaningful small pieces as well.
100% Unique & Hand Crafted
Anyone can go to a high-end furniture store and pick out a lovely piece of furniture. But that furniture is rarely built to last generations. And you join the ranks of thousands of other people with that piece. I offer something different: a chance to create something meaningful for your family that belongs in one home—yours.
