Details on Hope Chest Construction

The skill and dedication of our Amish craftsmen assures a high level of quality.

Our hope chests are created from solid hardwood including cherry and hard maple. The hardwoods used in our cedar chests are locally grown and harvested in the Upper Midwest.

Having access to amazing stands of hardwood, as our Amish craftsman do, is very important when building a quality cedar chest. But building to last involves more than just having the right wood that's been properly prepared - it involves a lot of knowledge, patience, and commitment.

Time honored methods of building fine furniture mean these pieces take a lot more time to assemble than mass-produced products. But a well-constructed hope chest has to have this kind of construction.

When things are made by the hands and eyes of a skilled craftsman, they can feel and see things a machine cannot. And when those eyes are those of an experienced Amish craftsman who takes the time to build in the way he learned from his father so many years ago, the process of making an heirloom has begun before the chest is even started.

And so it goes, from father to son, the right way to make a piece of furniture that can stand the test of time. Building to last is something that can only be taught, not written about. The apprenticeships of the Amish craftsmen who build our furniture are part of the process of standing up over time, because the process itself has already stood up over time.

That's what makes each handcrafted blanket chest from Erik Organic special, and how you know it is built to last - because it has already stood the most important test of time.
