MICHAEL SEWARD

I built my first piece of furniture, a hall table, in my basement shop. After a week of careful work I stood the table on my workbench under a bare light bulb. I was in awe of the the curly maple wood... Furniture making is an ancient art. My work reflects the legacy of American furniture design. The greatest challenge in building furniture is mastering the skill of craftsmanship. My work is about keeping alive the ancient skill of building furniture by hand. It's about the satisfaction that comes from the act of creating something useful. And it's about working with my customers to bring their ideas to life... Seward built custom furniture one piece at a time. Each piece of furniture was made by hand, built to suit the tastes and needs of a particular customer.
