MEXICAN COLONIAL FURNITURE IN ALDER


After so many years of making Mexican Colonial furniture using mesquite, old pine and rosa morada, skilled artisans are using kiln-dried alder from Canada. Alder is a hard wood but can be easily carved into many beautiful designs. This is a photo of a chair that you will find in a San Francisco store for $3,500.00. We can make this same chair and you can send us the fabric of your choice and it can be made for $600.00. Notice the beautiful details and workmanship. You can choose the stain for the wood and your own fabric to make it really one-of-a-kind.

Wall Art



This type of artwork can be used very effectively with any style of furniture. There are made of papel amate which is the bark from a tree that is soaked, pounded, coloured with natural dyes, and woven into designs. They come with a wood frame set up for adding picture lights in the back or from the top and are sensational in adding warmth and life to any room.
