This elm table came out absolutely magnificent but it was a LOT of work. The slab itself was 13' + when we received it from Berkshire Products. Our client drove out to the Berkshire to assess the slab…

This table was a little bit of a departure from the way we normally do things here at Cannon Hill— well, actually, there’s nothing about this table that’s little. Fully assembled as you see it here, it…

This live-edge walnut dining table measures out at eight feet long, and just about ten feet when the two extension pieces are installed. Our clients’ Rhode Island home is a spectacular piece of design…

We love this custom live edge table here at Cannon Hill because it demonstrates a handful of features that we really love, and a few of the ways that our processes produce furniture that nails what our…

Ultimately, the material that we work with is the anchor for any Cannon Hill project. On the building side, the worst thing you can do is to fight the material, to try and make it do things it doesn’t…

As much fun as it is to work with someone new and to get to know their particular goals and desires, we really value our repeat clients. Here at Cannon Hill we like to say that we don’t just sell a…

When we say that we’re a custom furniture maker we really mean custom, and it’s fun to get to show it off. Our clients came to us with a strong visual concept, and we worked with them to…

As is sometimes the case in the custom furniture business, this project began as something else entirely. The clients initially approached us to buy a desk and a hunting table. Happily for us, once…

This set is awesome! The client came to us with the idea for her new condo in South Boston. Her alcove is a bit tight for a custom dining table and chair set, so a wrap-around bench was a really…

This is likely the most flawless live edge walnut slab we have ever encountered. Not a blemish! Not a crack, not a spot of bark! The walnut slab was originally twelve feet long. It was shipped to us by…

A lot of wood comes through our shop, in a lot of different forms. We see reclaimed lumber of several different species, freshly milled boards in oak, cherry, maple, walnut, ash, and hickory, and live…

This table is flawless. Twelve incredible feet of perfect walnut. Custom steel base with a black powder coat. Lacquer spray finish. 

This coffee table is what’s known as a “cookie”; whereas most slabs are cut lengthwise from a felled tree, cookies are, as you can probably tell, cut straight across the trunk. The resulting slabs are…

One of the features of a single-slab table that we and our clients love the most is the presence of figure, and this Claro Walnut table is probably one of the most intensely-figured we’ve ever built. “…

Our clients, for whom we’d previously built the walnut coffee table in these pictures, approached us with a concept that was pretty much new to Cannon Hill: a totally removable kitchen island extension…

The clients came to us looking for a live edge walnut dining table. We did an exhaustive search for slabs that would meet their requirements and be as beautiful as possible and we came across these…

This table is absolutely stunning. We did everything we could to make it exactly how the clients wanted it, but there's nothing we can do to make the grain so incredible. That's all Mother Nature- that…

Most of the work that we do here at Cannon Hill is on dining tables — pieces that are meant to be the gathering place for family and friends, a centerpiece around which meals are shared and memories…

We’ve learned over the years that the best way to make furniture is to allow the material itself to guide the design and building process. Working with a natural product as arresting as the lumber that…

White Oak is perhaps the most durable of all the domestic hardwoods. This top is 101" x 54"  and made from 8/4 white oak which is 2" thick before we mill into it and end up around 1.625 to 1.75 inches…

When our clients approached us regarding this table, they explained that they needed a live-edge table that would feel at home in their wood-filled Maine home. There were already a number of natural…

The grain of a maple tree slab swirls fluidly, creating unique eye-catching patterns. No two slabs are exactly alike which…

This project, an eight-foot live-edge walnut dining table paired with a 50-inch round milled walnut coffee table, demonstrates one of our favorite capabilities here at Cannon Hill - the ability to…

This live edge walnut table slab came from Berkshire Products. It required some shaping on our end to make it more functional as it had a pretty large scoop in it. The brass bowtie inlays were powder…

This is a classically beautiful walnut top with an oil finish that has quite a statement for a base. The twisting steel pedestal was the idea of the client, and we provided a CAD to get it right, and…

This ash table was the brainchild of an architect who designed it on behalf of his friend and client for a newly remodeled condo overlooking Boston Harbor. The top is ash with a brilliant white wash.…

These are seven teak tables we made for a restaurant that is being built in Revere, overlooking the water. Four of the tables are dining height and three are coffee table height. As with many of our…

Sturdy 8/4 white oak with a subtle whitewash and spray finish that cuts the tan colors and softens the contrast between the tans and browns of the oak. The white was gives the entire table a softer…

When we’re building custom furniture for an office, like this conference table for a software company here in Boston, a whole host of considerations enter the conversation that aren’t present in our…

A designer with whom we have completed many successful projects told us they wanted a new conference table top for their office on the North Shore. They had an old hospital gurney base that they wanted…

It's not easy to match an existing piece. We rarely agree to do it without making sure that the client understands that perfect matching is nearly impossible when the materials used are old and the…

This is to date the largest table we've made. Fifteen feet of reclaimed oak. The top weighs over five hundred pounds! It took four of us to carry it into the home from the truck and 8 of us to flip it…

We started with several potential designs for this L shaped walnut desk. It is 6 feet by 8 feet. 24" deep on one side and 36" deep at the other side. We went back and forth with the client, and he…
