The Wood

Every piece of cabinetry, custom doors, furniture and wood turnings starts by selecting the best wood. We take the time sorting through stacks of wood, looking for boards with just the right color, grain pattern, and figure. Wood species are chosen based on esthetics and for their mechanical qualities.

The Time
We sell furniture that is created by individuals, not factory assembly lines. Many technical woodworking tasks are performed by machine, but some jobs are still best completed by hand.

We design and craft our furniture down to the last detail. When you buy furniture from Clear Stream Fine Woodworking, you will be able to say that you know the name of the person who made it.

Joinery and Finish
For joinery that is to last a lifetime, boards must be precisely milled and fitted. The finish on a piece of furniture not only brings out the hidden beauty of the wood, but also protects it. We use many time honored techniques, such as dovetailing and hand rubbed oil finishes in our work, but we also embrace more modern applications, such as linear poly-urethanes and modern adhesives. Care for each piece is individualized. This knowledge is shared with the customer who purchases the piece.
