DBURKEDESIGNS

I have worked with wood for over two decades, building furniture, and decorative jewelry and keepsake boxes. During this time I have learned from a number of wonderful woodworkers, including Stephen Proctor, Doug Stowe, Michael Fortune, and Mike Pekovich... I use native hardwoods such as cherry, maple, oak, and walnut, many from managed forests, and exotic woods including paduk, sapele, and zebrawood, or natural materials such as ceramic tiles and sandstone. All of the furniture and boxes shown on the website, as well as unique commissioned pieces, can be made in different woods, combinations of woods, and sizes.
