Louis Fry of Louis Fry Craftsman in Wood

“…Made of solid figured bubinga and macassar ebony. Attention has been paid to every detail. It is sturdy, elegant, and built to last for generations. For the past thirty years I have been designing and building fine hand-made furniture for both the home and work environment. Today this continues to be my profession and my passion. While I constantly endeavor to expand my design vocabulary and refine my technical skills, it is always within the context of meeting the desires and expectations of the individual client. In all of my work, I seek to wed beautiful materials and high craftsmanship with design that is original and elegant. My furniture is made to order for particular people and quite often for a particular purpose. I listen carefully to my clients and make every effort to make the commissioning process enjoyable and even exciting…”

James H. Little of James H. Little Handcrafted Fine Furniture

“Walnut keepsake box this unique box has a monogram in pewter inlayed into the top. The accent wood is Wenge. The interior of the box is lined with brown kid leather. All my life I have had a passion for wood, and the look and feel of fine handcrafted furniture. Over the past thirty nine years virtually every free moment has been spent studying and perfecting my skills creating custom pieces for friends and family. Nine years ago I was able to position myself to leave a more traditional career as a marketing executive and then a financial advisor to pursue the art of creating hand crafted custom furniture on a full time basis.”
