OLD WORLD TECHNIQUES
We utilize authentic hand craftsmanship
to create functional works of art that endure.
Our time-honored techniques include hand
cut dovetail construction, hand rubbed finishes,
and hand cast brass hardware. Beautiful
marquetry work is first designed, and then
created by hand cutting and inlaying the
veneer. These hand crafted methods produce
results that are unsurpassed by modern techniques.
OUR SECRET HAND FINISHING TECHNIQUE
Scott Thomas has created an exclusive
proprietary hand finishing technique. Highly coveted, this
extraordinary process is known only to our master artisans.
It involves over 25 steps, and results in a deep and transparent
finish that adds warmth and character to every piece of our furniture.
It’s our secret, but you can share the exquisite results with your customers.
HAND CAST FINISHING TOUCHES
Our drawer pulls and decorative
hardware are hand cast in our own foundry. Each piece
of hardware is carefully made to compliment the style
and tone of a specific piece of furniture. The aged
patina (found only in solid brass) reveals a subtle
natural beauty, giving our furniture its exceptional,
historical character.
THE FINEST RAW MATERIALS
Extraordinary furniture begins
with a foundation of the finest raw materials. So we
search the world for quality hardwoods and exotic
veneers—woods like European beech, North American walnut,
fine walnut burls, curly maple, swirled mahogany, beeswing
primavera, mappa burl, zebrawood, and rosewood. Selected for
their decorative grain patterns, these woods provide quality
that is nothing less than sublime.
