The Story Behind the Craft
For over a decade, we've been turning visions into heirlooms, one piece of wood at a time.
Our Journey
Karis Furniture began in 2010 with a simple belief: furniture should tell a story. What started as a one-man workshop has grown into a team of dedicated craftsmen united by a passion for creating pieces that stand the test of time.
The name 'Karis' comes from the Greek word for grace and kindness—values that guide our approach to both our craft and our clients. We believe that beautiful furniture should be accessible, sustainable, and built to become part of your family's story.
Today, we continue to blend traditional woodworking techniques with modern design, creating custom pieces that reflect both our heritage and our vision for the future of sustainable furniture making.
We don't just build furniture; we craft the soul of your home. Every piece carries the mark of its maker and the story of its owner.
