Sneak Peek – Quartersawn Oak Baker’s bench!

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

This striking piece will be seen as part of our weekly collection of “From the Cabinetmaker’s Bench” when we get back from Christmas break! Designed along the lines of a vintage baker’s bench, it is constructed from Quartersawn White Oak (1″ doors, drawer fronts and face frame) finished in our Caramel stain. It features a custom style door designed especially for this piece, side-by-side drawers and a run of handsome slats along the base of the open area. In true period style, note also the raised end panel in that same open area. Rugged 4 x 4 constructed legs anchor each corner on this solid (and heavy!) cabinetry.

Sneak Peek: Wood and Steel!

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

We’re taking a sneak peek today at this handsome tall cabinet out of Maple and finished with our clear Natural sealer and topcoat. Constructed from our Limited Line, this frameless cabinet features shelving behind the upper doors, a stainless steel tambour, and four drawers below; the two upper drawers clad in felt. The doors, drawer fronts and end panels are all made “open-face”, which means there are no visible plywood seams in any of the faces.

More images of this cabinet can be seen when it is added to our “From the Cabinetmaker’s Bench” section on Monday. Like this contemporary style? Contact one of our top-notch designers today and get started on your own dream kitchen!

Vanity? Dramatic? In The Same Sentence?

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Yes! (But you knew that already! ) We’ve updated our “From the Cabinetmakers Bench” section on our site, with this dramatic vanity built out of Sapele Mahogany. With six drawers, square legs and a gorgeous finish, we certainly feel that “dramatic” is appropriate. For more views and details, click over to “From the Cabinetmakers Bench“!

This barnboard and black kitchen cabinetry features a unique combination for an amazing one-of-a-kind custom kitchen island!

We’ve handcrafted the authentic, honest-to-goodness barnboard lumber (reclaimed by the good folks at Carlisle Wide Plank floors) into posts and horizontal runners for cabinets that feature our frameless construction! The island itself will contain an oven on one end, and a cooktop in the center area. (Note: The brackets you currently see under the cabinetry won’t be necessary once the cabinets are installed into the client’s home.)

Here’s a look at the opposite side. The left door on the end is fixed, and the right door is hinged to function as a normal door.

Once you’ve finished singing the “Electric Slide” which just got stuck in your head (our apologies), take a moment to click into our latest update of “From the Cabinetmaker’s Bench.” Here, we post photos of Crown Point cabinetry hot off the presses-er workbench.  Today’s featured cabinet, handcrafted from cherry, is outfitted with an Electronic Furniture Locking System (EFLS)!  A keyed electrical switch ensures the security of heirloom flatware that will be nestled into this cabinet’s felted cutlery dividers.  Take a look!

Traditional saw-tooth adjustable shelf supports are the unsung heroes of this handsome base cabinet. These brackets provide excellent shelf stability, allow for flexibile storage options and add period style charm. A Knotty Pine beadboard back creates a nice contrast against the distressed Sea Green finish, completing the look.

  • Wood: Clear PIne/Knotty Pine
  • Series: Beaded Inset
  • Sea Green/Burnt Umber with Van Dyke glaze
