Brian Miles Woodworking

Whether you're looking for functional style or an artistic statement, nothing surpasses a well-made piece of hand-crafted hardwood furniture. And nothing offers timeless beauty, subtle elegance and simple comfort like the furniture created in the workshop of Brian Miles. Brian Miles enjoys crafting the best from what nature has provided, and he invites you to share in that enjoyment. Whether it's

one of the offerings in his online gallery or a custom item created to your personal specifications, let Brian use his years of expertise and craftsmanship to create a piece that will become a treasured part of your home. Brian works with all hardwoods and constructs each piece with as much time as is necessary for perfection. He derives as much satisfaction in building one of his rocking chairs as the owner will find in using it. "There's so much handwork involved in building one. Brian draws his inspiration from the work of furniture masters Sam Maloof, George Nakashima
and James Krenov. Through Sam Maloof's books, Brian has studied and perfected the techniques that transform the merely functional into a unique work of art. The skill and craftsmanship that inspire Brian's work manifests itself in the smooth curves and uniform grain of his rocking chairs. Each section flows seamlessly into the next as the grain of the seat, back, headrest and legs all match perfectly. These chairs are designed with flowing lines and comfortable curves to accommodate the human form. Each surface is burnished to a smooth finish. The rocking chairs that you see in the gallery are Brian's primary focus, but he also applies his skills to bookcases, wine racks, benches and other items, some of which are specially commissioned. Although Brian displays his work at a few Midwestern art shows, the best way to get a Miles creation is to contact him directly. Each piece comes with a warranty that guarantees the workmanship against any defects. So whether you're looking for a unique gift, a family heirloom or that special item to complement your home, consider a quality piece of furniture by Brian Miles. "Expect perfection, settle for nothing less."
