The Beauty Of Handcrafted Custom Made Furniture




By Jeff Lakie

There is a defined beauty that comes with handcrafted, or custom made
furniture. If you have ever seen an antique dresser and appreciated the
time and dedication it took to create such a marvelous piece of furniture
you would also appreciate the craftsmanship of modern day artisans as
well.

Woodworking is an honorable art form. The men and women who practice
this art and create durable, functional, and practical furniture are among a
dying breed. The quality furniture that is produced by these talented wood
workers is among the most beautifully creative, fashionably timeless and
strongest ever.

If you think it is difficult to find a master carpenter who practices his craft
by specializing in creating custom furniture, think again. Every town
should have an abundance of custom furniture makers. Phone books and
word of mouth are among the usual means a reliable woodworker will be
found. A very established cabinet or furniture maker will not have to
advertise.

The cost for custom furniture will be significantly more than you would
pay for the more basic furniture found in a retail setting. The reason
behind the price increase for custom furniture may seem obvious to
some. To clarify the cost to those who just don't understand it begins with
the very reason basic furniture is less expensive.

Custom furniture is one of a kind. There is no production line where
countless tables are spun out on a daily basis. Custom furniture is unique
and also crafted with care and with an attention to detail. The tools and
space needed for a successful woodworking shop is part of the expenses
that are passed on to customers. Learning the trade and being an
apprentice for years only to then acquire years of on the job experience is
what custom furniture is all about.

If you think you can't afford to purchase custom furniture you might be
right. If you are looking to accentuate your entire home in custom
furniture it can become quite costly. The thing about custom furniture it
has a great resale value. What you pay for it today, though seemingly
pricey, will likely be the least ever paid for a particular piece of furniture.
