Our Philosophy:

White Oak Works is no ordinary custom furniture shop or woodworking studio. We’re excited to show you what we do, though we don’t expect everyone to agree with our approach. Our customers tend to be like us: perfectionists and over-achievers who are profoundly obsessed with quality, endurance and beauty. Our 500-year vision is just the beginning.

Visit our showroom to experience what we mean.

Extreme Craftsmanship

Attention to detail and craftsmanship are a given, but we take it to an extreme. We don’t cut corners – we make really beautiful corners. The back of a piece matters just as much as the front, maybe more! Our furniture is engineered and built to last centuries of wear and tear – at least 500 years. Our custom finish is both beautiful and indestructible. The more wear and daily use the better it looks and feels.

Why White Oak?

The guys in our woodworking studio are fired up every day by their obsessive passion for the timeless appeal of white oak. Our drive to make amazing work and take on audacious projects is fueled by our passion for white oak’s irresistible color, complex grain, sensuous texture, impressive density and unmatched strength. We get our white oak from sustainable sources in Kentucky. No other wood can match white oak’s warmth and magic. Our studio practice, specialized finishing process and construction are unique – and it’s why we stand behind our 500-year vision.
