The items on this page were inspired by the works of Charles and Henry Greene, often simply referred to as Greene & Greene. In addition to their groundbreaking architectural styles, the Gamble House being the best known example, they also designed the most elegant Arts & Crafts furniture of all time. Many craftsmen have taken inspiration from them when developing their own style.
These are my interpretations. These pieces show small variations on the same theme. The side table is the most recent variation and represents the tack I would take if left to my own devices. However, varieties are shown so you may decide which best fits your aesthetic preferences. Remember, it's about the word custom. What would you like? Prices are shown for standard pieces. Toward the bottom of the page, and without prices, are custom pieces that were developed on demand. Contact me if you are interested in developing similar, or other, pieces.

Price depends on size, starting at about $2,000. A frame for wall mounted sets is on the drawing board.
