Specialties
Staples finds inspiration in old growth lumber that he
turns into handcrafted tables, hutches, kitchen islands,
coffee tables, farm tables, art pieces, and custom-design
pieces. Staples’ reclaimed wood originates from razed barns, mills and homes primarily throughout New England.
Virgin old growth lumber is the finest wood available to
craftsmen and artisans—the wood is dense, heavy, strong and
beautifully patinaed. However, the protection of live standing
old growth trees in the United States makes obtaining this
wood commercially difficult and often impossible. Staples
discovered he could breathe new life into each magnificent
reclaimed board through its transformation into his one-of-a-
kind tables and furniture art.
The wood that Staples reclaims offers not only incomparable
beauty, but each board holds its own story having
survived the rigors of time. The heirloom quality furniture
that Staples creates adds a lasting legacy to this historic wood.
The Cabinet Makers here at Staples Cabinet Makers not only know every device employed by those past masters, but have studied their numerous finishing techniques. Stephen takes extreme pride in giving his knowledge to his craftsmen in order to produce what some may say is "the most beautiful furniture I have ever seen".
