Jon is the proprietor of a humble woodworking shop located in West Caldwell, NJ. For as long as he can remember, he’s had a love for tinkering and building things that others would enjoy. As a life-long learner, with each build he looks for new and interesting ways to challenge himself, improving his skills and mastery of the craft along the way. 

Few things are more frustrating than seeing your new Ikea bookshelf buckle and fall apart under the weight of your prized book collection. These days, many wood products are manufactured, optimizing for efficiency and margins, often compromising quality and materials to get there. These products are not designed to last very long, where inevitably, people find themselves in the endless cycle of buying replacements every few years. 

There is a better way. As a practitioner of craftsmanship, our philosophy revolves around sustainably sourced quality materials and traditional construction methods proven to stand the test of time, resulting in pieces that are built to survive for many generations of use.
