Frequently Asked Questions.

 

Q1: Do you make all your furniture, lamps and accessories yourself?     

Answer: Yes, all our furniture, lighting and accessories are hand made by David Lees, an English Master Craftsman with over 30 years experience.

 

Q2: Do you make your products in any woods other than oak and can I order a custom piece?           

Answer: Yes, although most of our products are constructed using quarter sawn white oak, we can use other woods if requested by a customer. If you would like a piece custom made to your exact requirements and specifications we will be happy to oblige.

 

Q3: What is 1/4 Sawn White Oak and why do you use it in the construction of your products?           

Answer: 1/4 Sawn White Oak refers to the method of cutting the boards from a log. Instead of the usual sawing method the log is cut into quarters and then milled. This less efficient method results in a more stable and attractive board. Crestwood Design uses 1/4 Sawn White Oak because of its natural beauty, unique markings, stability and strength. 

Quarter Sawn & Plain Sawn

 

Q4: What is Arts & Crafts Style?        

Answer: The Arts & Crafts Style originated in England in the 1800’s as a rebellion against Victorian mass production and industrialization.  In North America this style was adopted in the Mission Style of furniture and is also often referred to as Craftsman Style, American Bungalow Style, and California Bungalow Style. No matter what you call it, the Arts & Crafts Style offers clean lines, traditional craftsmanship, natural beauty and timeless design. Click Here to learn more about the Arts & Crafts Style.

 

Q5: Is your furniture made from solid wood?        

Answer: Yes, all our furniture is constructed from solid wood using 7/8" thick boards, we do not use veneers.

 

Q6: Is your furniture reproduction?        

Answer: Although many of our pieces have been inspired by original Arts & Crafts designs we do not consider our furniture to be reproduction, instead we are creating an original Crestwood Design piece for our customers. All our products are hand made and nothing is mass produced.
