Rowan House Log Furniture & Cabinetry
Cherryville, B.C.
Rowan House provides a line of log furniture and custom pieces to suit your needs.  We use the highest quality joinery, finish and hardware.  All of our furniture is crafted from dry, standing timber, which is considered unsuitable for harvest by traditional forest companies.  The timber is either too small, too crooked or too cracked and as a result it would either be burned or mulched.  The very qualities which render it "useless" to others make it ideal for us, as they add character to our furniture as well as making our products environmentally friendly.


ABOUT OUR STYLE

We decided in 1977 that we wanted to build our own log home.  Having no previous log building experience we bought some books on the subject and I built a log doghouse.  I then tackled a log chicken house.  It was on the third round of the chicken house that I thought, "I've got it!"  My point?  Experience is the best teacher.  Once we were living in the house we decided we wanted some log furniture.  So, it was learning more about joinery.   First I built a hassock, then a bed, then a sofa chair, loveseat, sofa and stools, but I was still unhappy with the finish.  Even though I had the "character" logs, it was boring.  After two years of experimenting with finish, I had another "I've got it" moment and it was so simple.

The first step is the most important one, how we remove the bark.  We do everything we can to save all the natural features under the bark  all the natural colour, cat faces, pitch pockets, worm tracks, even the hair sized worm tracks that are under the bark and the telltale ring left by the wild honey suckle plant which killed the tree.  These "defects" are beautiful and when treated properly accent the character pieces and give the overall look a natural balance.

By word of mouth, the sales started to come.  A product line developed from the pieces we built for ourselves for a bedroom, kitchen, office/study, living room, etc., and from the custom orders we received.

Please have a look through our photos and price list.  We welcome custom orders to suit your style and home, and our natural look compliments any décor.
