For many decades, the Amish has enriched our communities through creating jobs for men and women right here on American soil through the building of fine handmade furniture.  They have been known and valued for their discipline, craftsmanship and their production of top-of-the-line furniture. Each furniture piece is built with integrity and with the standard that each piece can and will stand the test of time. Now we know you’re probably thinking “well how can that be when the average life span of furniture is 7-15 years?” The truth is, is that quality furniture is not overly based on the manufacturer rather the materials that are used. Having the best resources make for the best product.
