Hello, welcome to my Etsy Shop.
Item ready to ship or in progress are in the left side of the home page under relevant headings. I am mostly sold out of Mitered Chests right now, and am filling orders for a group that will be completed in February 2023. If you would like to order with a 30% deposit, let me know and I can set up an Etsy Private Sale for you.
I have an excellent midcentury modern style Curly cherry armoire ready to ship. Images are the actual item:

A couple notes:
1) When you see tags under the listings such as "3 people have this in their cart," or "only 1 left," those are notes that Etsy places on the listings. I don't like it or endorse it and didn't ask for it, and I have no control over it.
2) All items, even special order items, will list a quantity of at least one. Etsy's platform requires you to list a quantity of at least 1, even if it hasn't been made yet. So, many items that indicate a quantity of one will still need to be made.
See my main page for items that are ready to ship, and also for those coming up in the next few months. If you would like to order something particular, let me know.
These are the jewelry chests that are completed and ready to ship:

Click through the Etsy platform to order any items in the links above. If the listing says, "Please contact me before ordering," it means that the item is not scheduled for completion at the moment.
CUSTOM ORDERS:
Most of the larger items, especially the jewelry armoires, were originally developed as custom projects. I can build them as is or modify them for your individual needs and preferences.
If you are interested, email or call anytime at 607-644-0740.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:
I ship to many international destinations. This includes the armoires and furniture. Larger items are crated with foam cushioning and may be shipped by ocean or air. Contact me for a quote to a specific location. For smaller items, see the individual listings for locations and rates. I urge you to leave plenty of time for the package to clear customs, as packages can get hung up for many reasons. Customers are responsible for all taxes and duties.
Please contact me for more details or to discuss custom work.
Thank you.

5 out of 5 starsThe jewelry chest is high quality with perfectly mitered corners and a smooth finish. Packaging was well thought out to ensure no damage during shipping. The wood is MUCH lighter than the listing photo so it doesn't compliment the other woods in my room as much as I was expecting, but it's still beautiful.

5 out of 5 starsMy Mom was blown away by the beauty and quality of her new walnut jewelry chest. Best Mother’s Day gift ever. Exceeded expectations and since I’m such a hero I ordered another one for myself.

5 out of 5 starsThis is a masterpiece. It is absolutely beautiful, elegant, gorgeous in every detail, delightful to touch and handle. The quality is superb, both the wood and the workmanship. The best testimony may be the reaction it elicited from my husband: "Exquisite. I have to buy you more jewelry now."

5 out of 5 starsThe jewelry box, ordered for my wife, was well worth the wait. David’s craftsmanship is excellent. Though made to order, the box is exactly as pictured. No deviations. The drawers slide smoothly, the spacing between each drawer is exact & the mitered joints are precise. The removable dividers make the box so utilitarian. It’s obvious that David has put a lot of thought into his designs and pays a great deal of attention and care in making his boxes. I’m also grateful in how securely David packaged the jewelry box for shipment. It was so well protected it was unscathed even after the UPS delivery man tossed the package and left it where it landed (on its side) on our walkway after it tumbled three times. It was a relief but more importantly so exciting to open the package and find such a beautiful jewelry box.

5 out of 5 starsI'm very happy with my new jewelry box. So many boxes out there are too small for even a fairly modest collection of jewelry. This box allows me to consolidate all my jewelry in one place, making it far easier to find the piece I want. And it's gorgeous to look at. The box is well made and the dividers are really helpful. The drawers slide very easily. I think it's worth every penny. Thanks David. Linda

Premium wood, real joinery, original designs.
I live and work in Owego, NY, west of Binghamton and south of Ithaca. I have been designing and building functional woodwork since 1990, and am self-taught.
My basic approach to woodworking is to choose premium materials, and execute simple designs with strong joinery. Beautiful wood can speak for itself; it doesn't need to be embellished or decorated. I use solid hardwood, mostly locally sourced cherry, walnut, maple and ash, but I use some imported wenge and rosewood for accents.. Drawer bottoms are cabinet grade multi-ply, interiors are solid ash.
Since 1991 I have completed a wide variety of work, from custom furniture to commercial installations. Currently my main focus is on jewelry chests and armoires.
I always have some completed pieces ready to ship; contact me for details. If you have a custom project in mind, feel free to call to call and discuss. Bear in mind that large pieces require a good deal of time to design and execute, so your patience is appreciated.

Etsy charges sales tax on all applicable purchases.
Shipping
Overseas shipments are via USPS International Priority Express Mail. I have had good experience with that service and the rates are very competitive. See individual listings for exact rates. Customers are responsible for all tariffs, taxes, and duties. Please allow ample time for items to clear customs.
Furniture and armoires are custom crated and shipped common carrier. Freight costs for furniture depend on size, distance, and service desired. Customer pickup at a freight depot is the least costly, white glove service delivered to your living room is the most.
