At Stone & Hill Woodworking, we create small-batch hardwood items that are perfect for everyday home use. Our products are handmade with a focus on simplicity and elegance, bringing beautiful comforts into your home. While some power tools are involved in the process, all our products receive their final shaping, sanding, and polishing by hand. Unless otherwise noted, items are finished with natural Tung oil applied with a clean rag and buffed into the grain by hand. This slow finishing process ensures that each layer's polymers fully cure before the next coat is applied, resulting in a beautiful and durable natural finish.
Handcrafted Hardwood Items
About the Name
Having been raised in the working class, we know well the struggle of day-in day-out tedium and the effort it takes to simply get out of bed and return to yesterday's problems. The ancient Greek myth of Sisyphus, from which our name is derived, captures this struggle nicely: Sisyphus is condemned to eternity in the underworld where he is forced to push a massive stone up a steep hill, but Hades has enchanted the stone to roll away from Sisyphus and back down the hill whenever it nears the top. Waking up each day, we face the world like Sisyphus chasing his stone downhill only to catch it at the bottom and turn around to look up at that same old hill. This internal daily struggle, and the implicit challenge to find happiness within it, is what unites us all in a common humanity. We hope our products remind you that no matter the day's challenges, there is always some beauty in the struggle. May your stone roll easily for you today and bring you peace and joy.
Custom-Made Furniture
We offer to build custom wood furniture for clients' homes and offices, such as desks, coffee tables, entryway tables, end tables, stand-alone bookcases, wall-mounted cabinets, and more. Complete the form below and describe your desired piece in as much detail as possible and provide rough dimensions. Joe will provide you with a free estimate for the total cost of the project.
When you confirm your custom order, we will create a detailed sketch of the piece with specific materials and dimensions and a rough timeline for the project's completion. One half of the total project cost will be due when you receive and approve of this sketch; the other half will be due when your custom furniture is delivered.
Throughout the process, we will provide you with progress photos of your furniture being made and inform you immediately of any changes in the cost of materials. We want you to feel as involved and in control of your project as you wish to be (it is a custom piece after all). Don't hesitate to write to Joe@stoneandhillwoodworking.com at any time to inquire about your project.
