Mainly because it feels better. Almost any new lumber you'll purchase these days is grown in ecologically sensitive areas or unsustainable tree farms that use an extensive amount of energy and resources to harvest, process and ship products. At Parkman Woodworks we use wood that has been recovered locally, which decreases the waste output on nearly every level of the supply chain.
These dining tables are handmade using wood that was reclaimed from Los Angeles homes, office buildings and factories built in the early twentieth century, when our fair city was first finding its place in the world. We've repurposed this time-tested lumber for our tabletops and paired it with welded steel frames as a means of honoring our history and sustaining our future.

Graham & Jonathan were incredibly helpful and patient as I decided what I wanted. They were clear about the timeframe and welcomed me in for a workshop visit. My dinner table and coffee table are beautiful. Will be back!

These guys are real artists and craftsmen. We got a custom made table from Parkman which turned out beautifully and exceeded our expectations. Then a few years later when we decided to modify said table (we had decided it was too big for our space) they were totally game to modify it, came up with a great plan and a reasonable price and once again delivered top notch work! Strongly recommend.

We ordered a dining room table through them and they did a fantastic job! It is better than we had anticipated. The quality is outstanding. We cannot say enough about how good the table looks. They also adhered to their timeline even when other places are having major delays with Covid. We highly recommend Parkman Woodworks!

Jonathan built us a custom shaped table for our banquette area in the kitchen. It was an odd shape, so we needed something custom. The biggest concern was that the shape would be unstable. Jonathan designed us a steel pedestal, sent us a 3D rendering, and executed everything perfectly.
We just had our kitchen remodeled, and it looks nice, but the one thing everybody keeps commenting on is this incredible table. The wood is unlike anything I’ve ever seen, and sustainable!
The photos on the website don’t do it justice. Go to their shop and look at the tables they have on display for yourself

Went in and discussed what I wanted for my table and bench. It came in--early--it was exactly what we had discussed. They really went out and found the type of wood that I said I wanted and made it into a table that works so well in my space. I love it!!

We were looking for a custom-sized live-edge bar table to act as a centerpiece in our condo. Jonathan and Graham understood exactly what we wanted and designed a modern/industrial/rustic piece, made from naturally-fallen local sycamore trees, which ties everything together in our "treehouse". We're thrilled with the final product; the attention to detail and quality of workmanship speaks for itself. The table both anchors and levitates in the space, and we've already enjoyed drinks with friends, hummingbird-watching, and coffee breaks at the table while working from home. Highly

All our expectations were exceeded. From the very initial connection and the appointment at the shop to discuss options with Graham to the delivery of the table, I was impressed. However, the most important point is the absolute beauty and quality of the table. It is easy to find a "reclaimed wood" table at the furniture chains but this table was made to our preferences with invaluable insight from Graham. As a result it is exactly what we wanted and it is stunning and we paid no more than we hoped or expected. In addition, by having it built locally by a small business we were supporting our own

I'm so happy with my new desk! I'm short so all mass-produced desks are too tall for me. Even furniture made for children are too tall! Desks that I found at large furniture outlets with adjustable or short enough heights looked terrible and are made from flimsy materials. Parkman Woodworks was able to make a sturdy desk to my exact specifications--low height, beautiful, and with enough workspace for me and two napping cats. I was able to place an order within minutes online. I filled out a simple form with my preferences and Graham responded right away. I didn't have to leave my

We found Parkman Woodworks through Instagram and commissioned them to create our new kitchen table. We could not be happier with the results! Working with Graham and Jonathan was a great experience from beginning to end. Such a wonderful group of talented artists paired with stellar professionalism. Thank you all so much for our gorgeous table. We love it!!

As a mental health therapist providing telehealth, podcaster, blogger and YouTuber, I spend 10-15 hours a day at my desk. Over the pandemic I started experiencing really bad lower back pain because the desk I bought previously was not the right dimensions and I needed something better, but could not find what I wanted anywhere online or in local furniture stores. After calling around to other custom furniture makers, I was becoming discouraged because none seemed that interested in me as a customer. I stumbled on @parkmanwoodworks on Google, and from my first call, I knew I had someone who really

Parkman Woodworks worked with me to build my dream custom furniture and made the process easy at every step of the process. From my initial email to final delivery, I felt taken care-of through it all. There were genuinely no stupid questions and more than being accommodating, they were excited for every idea.
I first reached out to Parkman to inquire about building custom bookshelves with an emphasis on reclaimed wood. My condo is a refurbished factory space, so their use of reclaimed metals was an extra bonus. My project had some strange quirks (like the pipes you can see at the top of my picture

I love to cook and host large dinner parties so it's been a dream of mine to own a beautiful, long, well-made dinning table. After much research, I decided to get something locally made with Parkman. You can buy a table from any of those hip mid-century furniture stores for the same price, but a fraction of the quality. I have a "wood" coffee table from West Elm and it's absolute garbage.
I went to visit Parkman's showroom and Graham showed me their 4 basic texture/color combinations for the reclaimed wood. All the wood is taken from old buildings around LA and Graham

LOVE LOVE LOVE these guys and the work they do! My partner and I met with Graham on a Saturday (he kindly opened for us when they were closed) and walked us through all the options available. We ended up ordering a live edge sycamore table and bench - both of which turned out stunning. So happy to have our table for life! The whole process from start to finish was fun, easy and so pleasant. We loved working with Graham and will happily recommend Parkman Woodworks to anyone. They are the real deal and true gents. Thanks guys!

I had been looking for the right desk for about a year and decide to look into getting one made. With perfect yelp reviews I contacted Parkman Woodworks. Even though it was right in the middle of a pandemic, Graham reached back out to me quickly with estimates. The prices were pretty good for a custom made, beautiful wood desk.
He was upfront, that with the lockdown, delivery times would be long. Almost 6 weeks. I appreciated the honesty and went for it. And due to the usual circumstances, he even waived my delivery fee! He kept in contact during the whole process and they made the estimated

The very first piece of furniture for our new home was a Parkman Woodworks dining table (+ bench!). I was so relieved to have found, not only exactly what I had been imagining and couldn't find from all the obvious cookie-cutter shops, but also top-notch service, knowledge and super friendly guys I'd want to continue doing business with. They set my expectations for local business high and so far, no one else comes close. I can't recommend them enough. Thanks PW! #shoplocal
