DURFEE

My career began with an apprenticeship in boatbuilding here in Maine, and for about five years I did primarily boat work, building new and repair, in boatyards and independently. But for the past thirty years I have been crafting furniture and interior cabinets. From my one-man shop, I build high quality, made to order pieces for customers throughout the country... I am also concerned with fostering the trade and handcrafts, and have organized shows and workshops, demonstrated in classrooms, and taught at a furniture making school. I am a past president of the Maine Woodworkers Association... Charles Durfee Cabinetmaker is a small custom fine furniture making shop, designing and crafting pieces one at a time in the traditional manner directly for the customer.
