Craftsmanship
Old World joinery unites with modern day technology for extraordinary results.
 
At the root of TYME Furniture Studio’s master craftsmanship is a thorough understanding of wood and its interaction with the environment. Knowledge of the way wood expands and contracts, together with superior joinery techniques, is fundamental to designing a piece of furniture or interior that will withstand the test of time.

All of our projects are handcrafted from solid wood materials and real wood veneer. Our high-quality techniques and materials make our furniture not only beautiful but stable – adhering to strict standards of quality and durability.

We believe details make all the difference – and we pride ourselves on noticing details others might miss, to ensure the integrity of the piece as a whole. Our approach results in unparalleled precision: handmade signature pieces that look like they are not handmade.

Once a project is completed to our exacting specifications, smaller pieces are packaged and shipped directly from our location. Larger projects are delivered and installed onsite by the artisans themselves.

About Veneer Work
It may come as a surprise to discover that the highest end furniture is usually veneered. Especially when implementing newer approaches to furniture construction, using veneers has surpassed traditional hardwood in many respects:
  • Veneer construction is more stable. Because of the relative instability of solid hardwood when faced with the expansion/contraction due to environmental conditions, real wood veneer adhered to high-quality engineered hardboard is generally more durable and stable.
  • Veneers are "green." Veneer logs are sliced into 1/64th inch pieces yielding many more faces than sawing into hardwood lumber. The slicing process produces no sawdust resulting in complete use of the log. This is the most conservative use of our valuable timber resources. The base materials to which veneers are adhered are made of recycled materials: MDF (wood slurry pressed together) or particle board (wood chips pressed together).
  • Veneers can be exotic. Using veneers opens up decorative wood options to include countless exotic varieties from around the world which can be matched to create stunning furniture pieces.
In addition to using veneer work on our own projects, other wood professionals can source their veneer work to TYME Furniture Studio. We have completed several projects of this type including cabinet doors and furniture pieces for other professionals. Professionals interested in our veneer work may contact us to learn more.
