At Homestead Craftsman we
provide unique and innovative accessories for your home or
office in the style and tradition of the Arts & Crafts
Movement. We specialize in high quality home and office
décor pieces including wastebaskets, coat racks, book ends,
CD holders, wine racks, desk sets, serving trays, and
others. Many of our pieces have Pewabic or Motawi tiles
incorporated into their design. We also offer many styles of
frames for your pictures and artwork. Each piece created to
compliment your existing Arts & Crafts Style furniture.
All pieces are of the
highest quality and are made to order. We hand select each
piece of lumber to take advantage of the natural beauty of
the grain, and carefully craft your piece by hand in our studio.
Whether it be mortise &
tenon, tongue & groove, splined miters or dovetails, our
joinery techniques are true to the Arts & Crafts period.
These techniques have withstood the test of time and are
acknowledged as some of strongest and most beautiful
woodworking joints available.
While the details of our
finishing process are proprietary, we can say that we employ
a variety of materials & processes including: water-based
aniline dyes, fuming, natural shellac, waxes and modern
polyurethanes, depending on the nature of the piece.
Whatever the case may be, the finish is intended to enhance
the appearance yet provide the proper protection.
Please visit our
Craftsmanship page for more
information regarding how these pieces are made. We then
invite you to visit our online store where you can browse
through our large number of items and, most importantly,
select which piece you will use to accent your home or
office. |
