Meet the Maker
ralph mitchell
furnishings of intoxicating beauty
Working alone, I state working alone because nearly everything that I design and make are works of art made by me alone and signed by me for 20+ years, Ralph produces furnishings and signs rebelling against "mechanical mediocrity" refusing to work within the limitations imposed by machines and produce objets d'art which can only be accomplished with many hours/days/weeks/months of hand tooling.
To summarize, I am an artisan, not merely a furniture maker. Thank you for your interest in my fascination.

Mar 4, 2017Ralph did a wonderful job. Far beyond my expectations and at half of what I would have paid for a commercial resin replica. I would most certainly recommend him to any one wanting similar items.

Jun 17, 2014Ralph of Furnishings of Intoxicating Beauty was amazing to work with. He crafted exactly the piece I wanted -- a custom carved cross in a traditional ethnic design. The finished piece is beautiful, elegantly hand carved with a superb finish. Ralph is a professional and a true artist. He took the time to make sure he understood the requirements of the job and offered suggestions that only made the final project better. Thanks again, Ralph!

Jul 28, 2017I asked to have a totem pole designed like a drawing I had. The totem pole arrived and it was EXACTLY like the drawing. It was a great job and the seller was communicative throughout the whole process. I would absolutely use the seller again.
