Paulus Fine Furniture
Harpswell

Overview

Custom made furniture, cabinets and other furnishings for the private residence as well as the commercial environment.

Creating, constructing, building has always been very fulfilling to me. I built my first pieces in my early twenties. Simple and basic cabinets, though my friends liked them and were eager to have them in their homes. Later on I built a 14-foot sailboat from some simple drawings. I have to say that I had more fun building the boat than sailing it!

Woodworking is in my genes. I was born and raised in the Netherlands, where my father and uncle were both craftsman. I feel that through them, I inherited a sense for beauty, harmony and balance.

After a period of time spent in the managerial world a career change led to the Fine Woodworking Program at Haywood Community College in North Carolina.

In 2002 I started creating furniture in a small one-car garage. Since that time many, many unique pieces of furniture have been created for customers all around the country and beyond.
