Thread: Amish / Solid Wood / Maple / Executive Desk & Bookcase

bump - looking to purchase soon'ish

The raised paneling, and the solid wood - no veneers - means the two items will not be cheap. I am not sure you are going to find anything for less unless you find a small cabinetmaker that needs the work. The only places I have shopped for solid wood furniture at is Solid Wood Interiors and Woodcraft. Anything you would see at Solid Wood Interiors would be much cheaper and would generally ...

Definitely not cheap, but the look is a "must have" of mine ... I was considering an oak desk, but way too tacky to match with my maple floors (4.25"W)...and this kind of stuff hardly ever pops up on the classifieds what was your service with Woodcraft like? reliable? trustworthy? good customer service?

I didn't end up buying the table I was looking at Woodcraft. Went for something completely different at Elte instead. I know you want no veneer but if you change your mind, you can look into Hooker furniture. I have a TV cabinet from them, well built and they have the style of desk you are looking for.

You might want to Google on "mennonite furniture." The heart of Mennonite country is around Hawkesville , a few kilometers NW of Waterloo which, according to Wikipedia, has several companies that specialize in custom furniture.
