Customer says, "Now I have a true masterpiece hanging on my wall, thanks to Kevin and Mari. Their dedication, artistry, and customer service make Antique Woodworks a rare gem that I’d recommend to anyone looking for a one-of-piece.

This is the kind of thing that makes is all worthwhile. The original beam came from an 1800s vintage log cabin near LaCrosse, Wisconsin. Once we finished it up, it traveled down to Texas to a customer with ties to LaCrosse. It is so cool to see this old log cabin timber grace a modern, all black fireplace setting.

Who`d have guessed? Reclaimed truck leaf springs in table base paired with bold walnut slabs – unexpected contrast that totally works!

We crafted this table for a blind customer and his loved ones, focusing on distinctive metal textures he could explore through touch. The boisterous wood grain gave his mother endless details to share with him as she described the piece. Building this custom table became more than just craftsmanship – it deepened into a meaningful connection with an amazing family throughout the entire process.

This exquisite single-slab black walnut table, measuring an impressive 42 x 72 inches, is truly wonderful. It seamlessly combines its natural beauty with the charm of an early 1900s vintage gas street lamp base. The base was carefully refurbished to maintain a warm, aged, authentic appearance. Together, these elements create a stunning and unique piece that will undoubtedly be the focal point of any space.

Our reclaimed, solid white oak fireplace mantel really pops while pulling in the dark-streaked character. Black fireplaces are one of the popular trends these days.

This incredible walnut fireplace mantel showcases striking grain patterns, beautifully contrasting against a contemporary slate gray backdrop.

Incredible solid reclaimed white oak coffee table. True mortise and tenon joinery with dovetail corners on top. 1800s vintage hand-hewn legs. We cheated a bit and used 2-by material rather than beams for the top, but the table would have weighed about 500lbs. Instead, we came in right about 250lbs. Pictures show a bit of the behind-the-scenes work. #coffeetable #customtable #reclaimedwoodtable #bespoketables #oaktable #diningtable #reclaimedwood #reclaimedwoodfurniture #customfurniture #reclaimedwood #reuse #barnwood #minnesota #interiordesign …

Solid white oak table and benches made with reclaimed floor joist material. Even though some might call this a country table, it fits perfectly well into this delightful mid-century modern home.

What a beautiful unicorn black walnut mantel! I almost hate to show this one because the great woodgrains in the walnut will be tough to replicate. We were very lucky on this one. Nature certainly has a way with things.

Phenomenal execution on a natural white oak mantel with 1800s vintage hand-hewn marks. Accented by streaked white oak boards and an impressive elk rack mount. Wow! …

Neat white oak streaked mantel from an old barn sill timber. These things looks extremely rough when we start but they go through a Cinderella transformation. It`s always fun to watch.

This is what looking for the perfect mantel piece means. This once rotten sill timber was cleaned up to showcase great grains and character. All set on modern steel with hand-hammered iron accents.

Kind of a crazy transformation. The incredible grain patterns on this red elm mantel were hidden behind sapwood and lots of messy fuzz in this old barn beam.

Modern, solid white oak fireplace mantel. We stumbled upon an usual batch. These beams had been in a heated shouse (shed/house) for almost 25 years. Fully dry.
