Client Stories

“Before we hired Gamaliel Woodworks to design and build our furniture, our living room felt uninviting. Our biggest challenge was combining functionality along with great aesthetics. However, the team at Gamaliel Woodworks went above and beyond our expectations and helped us create the perfect room that we could relax and gather in as a family! Not only did they create pieces that were solid, comfortable, and stylish – but also their customer service was exemplary! They always kept open communication with us for an amazing result.”

Behind the Scenes Look at the Workshop

At Gamaliel Woodworks, each piece of furniture created is a unique combination of craftsmanship, skill, and dedication. Starting with choosing the finest woods, every design is carefully considered for its aesthetics and durability. The team of craftsmen work together to provide individual attention to each piece of furniture at every stage of production.



The joinery process begins with marking and cutting the precise angles required for eased edges, dovetail corners, housing joints, and other details. Each joint is carefully examined for accuracy before proceeding to assembly. Once assembled, the grain is matched up where possible and beefy frame-and-panel construction creates a symmetrical look with precise measurements in place. The process is completed with shaping tools as needed on all exposed wood surfaces in order to create smooth curves that maintain a uniform style throughout each piece.

Finally, pieces are tested against rigorous standards in order to ensure maximum stability and robustness before finished off with multiple layers of hand-applied varnish or lacquer designed to protect the surface while maintaining an attractive glow that adds warmth and character to each design. With over 25 years experience producing custom woodworking pieces, Gamaliel Woodworks has consistently delivered unsurpassed quality items that not only last a lifetime but also become exclusive family heirlooms.
