White Oak Dining Table with Extensions

Handmade in Vestal, NY

I cut and fit every joint by hand in my Vestal shop, using traditional joinery that’s built to last for generations.

Solid Hardwood

Every project starts with solid hardwood that I hand-pick myself from local lumber mills.

Tailored to Your Home

Each piece is built to fit your room exactly, then finished with hand-rubbed natural oil and wax to bring out the wood’s true beauty.

MEET THE MAKER

Built by Francis Twomey

Every piece from Canterbury Woods Creations is built by me, from dining tables to dressers to full room collections. When you order, you work directly with me from your first idea to delivery day. I like to use solid North American hardwoods, traditional joinery, and a natural oil and wax finish that lets the wood speak for itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does custom furniture take? Most pieces take about 6 to 10 weeks, depending on the design and our shop schedule. We confirm your lead time in your quote.
How much does a custom dining table cost? Prices depend on size, wood, and design. Request a free quote for exact pricing.
Can I choose the wood and size? Yes. I usually recommend domestic hardwoods such as walnut, white oak, cherry, hard maple, or red oak, but exotic woods are also available. We can adjust dimensions to fit your space.
Do you ship?  I try to deliver each piece of furniture personally. When that is not possible, I can work with you and my shipping partners on a shipping quote. Smaller items like cutting boards usually ship free. 
What finish do you use?  For most of the pieces, a hand-applied natural oil and wax finish that protects the wood while keeping the natural grain and feel.
