Doucette & Wolfe Furniture Makers

We are a one man, one woman custom furniture shop, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. We are extremely passionate about making beautiful, functional pieces of furniture and we always are looking for new ways to expand our knowledge to produce a better all around final product. From the use of high quality rough hardwoods to the final finish we make high quality custom furniture for clients around the country. Before becoming full time furniture makers, we both worked in hands-on, creative fields. Matthew as a finish carpenter and custom home builder, and Moriah as a gardener/ landscaper, creating landscapes with plant material and stone. We both discovered the world of furniture making on our own. Through trial and error and a focused dedication and passion for the craft, we learned the ins and outs of furniture construction and joinery. We studied a variety of different styles of furniture, learning about design and the importance of balancing strength and functionality with great overall proportions. We studied, and came to understand the various aspects of wood and how to construct a piece of furniture from solid wood while still allowing for the seasonal changes that wood goes through. We also have researched, experimented, and honed our finishing skills to create furniture that truly displays the natural beauty of the wood, with a wide range of finishes in our repertoire to meet the variety of needs of our clients. After years of learning the trade of cabinet/furniture making we both decided to take the next step to expand our knowledge further. We went to Vermont were we further studied traditional joinery and techniques. This solidified our dream of creating handmade custom furniture, full-time. Since then, we have enjoyed “commuting” across the driveway to “work”, where we enjoy working with clients around the country to create pieces of handmade furniture, future family heirlooms that truly belong in their home or office.
