A Design Language Developed over Generations.
Erickson Woodworking would like to invite you to enjoy a summer gathering in Nevada City, California, to experience a showcase of our work and to spend time in this place we love and call home. We will be showing a curated selection of furniture, giving a talk, and welcoming you to our wood shop for a tour.
In between these events, we invite you to explore this beautiful and eclectic community and place where we live, work and play. We can provide you with a list of recommendations for places to stay, eat, shop, hike, swim and sight see. We hope you will enjoy your time here as much as you enjoy our furniture.
From tree…
What goes into an Erickson Woodworking piece of furniture? We start with the wood.
Most often it’s material we’ve harvested, milled and dried ourselves to a set of standards that we’ve spent decades developing. Before we cut out the parts of a chair or table, we spend a few hours arranging their templates onto the selected boards to assure that the wood’s color and patterns will be shown to their best effect. After that, we build the pieces using hand-crafting techniques that date back hundreds of years.
… to furniture.
The comfort of the chair has been central to Erickson Woodworking since our founding in 1969. We’ve narrowed down the perfect fit to ten different elements that range from the angle of the seat to the depth of the scoop that cradles your sit bones.
All of these elements have to work in concert to make a chair comfortable. We’ve spent thousands of hours composing this particular symphony.
For ultimate comfort, choose one of our South Yuba chairs with their flexible floating back slats.
