Announcement
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 sold out of Mitered Chests right now, and am filling orders for a group that will be completed in October. If you would like to order with a 30% deposit, let me know and I can set up an Etsy Private Sale for you.
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 care for 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.
See my main page for items that are ready to ship, and also for those coming up in the next few months. In the spring I will be making a group of Arched Apron Chests; they will be ready in April. Mitered Chests will be available in October, as I am working on some large armoire commissions all summer. If you would like to order something particular, let me know.
I will have one armoires available for sale in the next few months. See the main page for details.
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 starsThis jewelry box is exquisite. I am so pleased with this purchase. David arranged the drawer partitions to suit my requirements and still they are adjustable should my needs change. Perfect! His communication was great and his suggestions helpful. I highly recommend this woodworker. He is highly skilled and is detail oriented....a beautiful piece that will become a family heirloom.

5 out of 5 starsMy lovely jewelry box arrived promptly and was extremely well packaged. It is obvious that expert hands put a great deal of care and work into the box....I cannot adequately describe its beauty! The parts are joined so smoothly, the finish glows softly, and the wood's natural beauty is allowed to shine through. I will cherish it....thank you!

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely a stunner!
If you're on the fence in regards to an heirloom/investment piece, do not hesitate.
Quality of materials and construction are worth it. -

5 out of 5 starsThis is my second chest from David. (I have two granddaughters who will inherit them one day.) The tiger maple is glassy-smooth and gorgeous, the drawers are beautifully divided and easy to use. I have chosen to put family pieces and my other favorites in it. (Only two are too tall.) It was meticulously packed to avoid damage in shipment or opening. It arrived swiftly. Thank you!

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.

Payment
For items not yet completed, 50% deposit is due when ordering, 50% upon shipment. For completed items ready to ship, full payment is due when ordering.
Sales tax is due on items purchased in person from my studio or shipped to addresses in New York state.
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.
