The Production List
UPDATED 01-08-2026
Following my third—and final—surgery of 2025, my physician has cleared me to return to work. I plan to resume limited time in the shop beginning 01-10-2026.
I will need to ease back in and may not be able to work full days initially, which means some tasks will progress more slowly than usual. That said, please know that I am actively working to complete all outstanding box orders and get them to you as efficiently as possible.
As always, I sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support.
CREATING A PLACE WORTHY OF YOUR MEMORIES
Barry Gilbert
ABOUT ME
I am passionate about the things that we hold dear. I am obsessed with our memories, our history and a sacred place to keep them. A time capsule we will pass down to our family.
My Promise
My word is my Bond. I pride myself on being a master craftsmen in my industry, skilled artisan in wood and finishing methods. I use time-honored techniques that can only be performed by hand to ensure you receive my finest work.
My brand was established in South Carolina in 1995. Dissatisfied with the quality of items available, I set out to craft products of uncompromising standards by using only the finest wood available.
Since 1995, my standards of quality have never wavered. My products are made of only the finest woods: Black Walnut, Mahogany, Sapele, Purple Heart, Birds-eye Maple and Leopard Wood sourced from around the globe.
