 Fine Furniture and Custom Designs

 

Design with Benefits

New York Heartwoods creates timeless, lasting wood furniture and custom designs that capture the beauty and history of the Hudson Valley's urban forests. By using wood from storm-downed and urban trees and making timeless, lasting designs, we make things so that trees can grow.

Made with care

Every object we make is meticulously crafted to highlight the unique features of the wood we use. Choose from our inventory of lumber and slabs, each of which has its own story. We work closely with our clients to create pieces that they will cherish.

focused on the future

To continue the cycle of life that makes our work possible, 5% of our profits go to forest conservation and urban forestry programs. We aim to produce zero waste, and plant more trees than we use.

Spalted sweet gum countertop (one of three countertop projects we have cookin’). Benefits of working with small mills and local trees is you get weird beautiful wood like this. Milled from urban Warwick, NY trees and returning to live on in a kitchen there. #fullcircle #sweetgum #spalted #urbanwood #sustainablewood #localwood #sustainability #sustainabledesign #hudsonvalley #upstateny #newyorkheartwoods #woodcountertop #countertops #womeninwoodworking #dowoodworking
Last week a tornado touched down at @glynwoodorg taking down dozens of trees, many of them iconic ones around the main house. Heartbreaking to see, and fuel for more ideas on how resources like these that are generally wasted can be made into beautiful, meaningful, lasting things. So many more storms these days, so many trees falling and dying. The way we work with trees and wood needs reimagining, glad we have platforms like this to share ideas and find inspiration. The weight and scale of it feels like a lot to hold sometimes 💚
Also for @eileenfisherny’s new Brooklyn store: Cash wraps! Shown here waiting for finish and castors. About five years ago I turned down being in a Marlboro menthol cigarette campaign (😂 that was hard) even though we “needed” the money. Soon after #eileenfisher (my idol - a social and environmental activist, using sustainable fabrics and supporting women entrepreneurs since the ‘80s before it was cool) reached out to us about creating displays for all their stores. All to say, I learned then not to compromise, that what is most aligned will show up if you’re clear what isn’t. Thank you, universe. Thank you, Eileen Fisher. #cashwrap #cabinet #reclaimedwood #womanowned #hero #retail #newyorkheartwoods #sustainability #sustainabledesign #sustainablefashion
More goods for @eileenfisherny new Brooklyn store going out tomorrow, this time a load of white oak pedestals made with urban wood from Saugerties, NY. #keepitlocal #localwood #urbanwood #sustainabledesign #sustainability #pedestal #display #whiteoak #upstateny #hudsonvalley #newyorkheartwoods
This photo infuriates me. @sawmillbusiness posted this and asked for followers to caption it. To me, it stands for the lack of connection and respect we collectively have for beings that hold immense consciousness for our planet; it stands for the need to control and profit without thought to how that changes the course of life for a multitude of other beings, forever. If you want a sense for how this country and others were built at the expense of forests and native people read “Barkskins” by Annie Proulx - an eye opener. There’s an eclipse today, things are intense. Go hang out with some trees, appreciate that they make you feel better. They will, they’re cool like that.
