Custom furniture

A branch of wood and metal working dedicated usually to small scale furniture production. Often custom furniture is synonymous with studio furniture, a branch of furniture making focusing on furniture as an artistic expression. Custom furniture can also be designed for large projects that need specific dimensions and requirements. Hand-crafted, custom furniture companies can provide the artistic expression and technical needs that all designers deal with. Amish Furniture craftsmen and retailers typically offer custom furniture construction. Custom furniture is more about what you need versus what is available.
