Every one of our coffee tables are handcrafted to you, bolstering unique designs that can give a room a feel of Rustic charm, organized Minimalist, colorful Bohemian, but we don’t stop at the style. We always try to incorporate special things from your life or house into each piece, whether that’s intricate molding off a family heirloom or just stuff special about you and your home.
Are coffee tables are sturdy and made to last generations, using multiple types of joints for function and even sometimes cosmetic. Maybe you want a shelf along the bottom, or a glass top, maybe even a hidden compartment we got you covered.
Ideas for Your Stunning Coffee Table

Each Design starts with you, we like to know a little about what you like and if there’s anything to incorporate into the design. Maybe you're into a sleek Midcentury Modern with a nice straight curve legs going into the base bolstering ample storage, or maybe it’s for your man cave and needs to be a dark oak to go with your missionary bar, or perhaps a light maple top with minimalist legs to give you that last touch of cozy you were missing. Whatever your style is we would love to build it.

When picking your wood, it’s important to understand the qualities of each. We will let you know as were designing it but some wood has a more muted reserved grain while some have more pronounced grains and knots that might not always fit the vision you had planned. Some wood we love for Coffee Tables are
cherry - very beautiful red coloring with not too much of a grain. As it ages it turns into a very dark red/brown you see in many antiques.
Walnut - A beautiful dark brown wood with some lighter tans mixed in some boards, great for accents in the design or even the whole desk however can come with a hefty price compared to the other standard woods.
White Oak - very good, refined look usually in a lighter brown tone. The grain is typically found very straight in most boards but can be cut to have a very unique pattern. Great middle ground on cost.
Maple - A very light tan color with typically very faint grain, however there’s types of maple that can make the grain one of the most beautiful options out there.
Ash - very similar to oak but typically wider grain. Great for when you want a flat panel to really pop.

Coffee Tables are great in all sizes but should really match your couch. usually roughly 2/3rds the length of your sofa to give you ample room for everyone seated and give the best feel to the room.
Shape of the top is important to sometimes an oval might work better in the room while others might find the standard rectangle is best. If you have a smaller living room a boat shape could give the table a bigger feel then it actually is.
