Discontinued Furniture
Have a piece in mind but it’s no longer available? We can build furniture to match the discontinued product using top-grade and kiln-dried solid hardwood and Old-World methods like dovetailing and tongue-and-groove joinery. MMW can create, recreate, or customize just about anything you wish, including cast bronze statuary. Commission a piece of furniture from any style or era. Choose any upholstery, finish, stain, paint color, or level of distress. Then, we will incorporate quality materials with your choices to create beautiful and long-lasting furniture. We offer different levels of custom finishing and materials to help accommodate your budget.
Our Selection of Materials
- Mahogany
- Teak
- Oak
- Rosewood
- Mindi Wood (White Cedar)

Custom Finishing Options
Level of Customization: Premium is our top-of-the-line product with all bells and whistles like kiln-dried hardwoods and best finishes. Gently Distressed includes kiln-dried hardwoods and our wax finish for antiqued appearance.Rustic includes air-dried wood and simple stain for rustic Old-World appeal.
Begin by choosing your level of customization, desired materials, preferred paints and stains, upholstery or marble/granite where appropriate, or top coat. Finalize the process by selecting your furniture’s hardware, finish, and style.
The joinery method is tongue-and-groove and tenon-and-mortise. Some products may include plywood parts. You will not find MDF (medium density board) particle boards or inexpensive composites in our products. Feel free to request different materials or construction methods for an additional charge. Because we are involved with every aspect of construction, we maintain direct control over the process and outcome. We guarantee excellent craftsmanship and customer satisfaction with every custom order.
