Common Questions
How does your custom furniture construction make pieces last longer than typical store-bought items?
We use dovetail joinery and sustainable white oak sourced from Kentucky. This combination creates a mechanical bond that holds tight for generations, and the raw wood finish avoids plastic coatings that peel or degrade. Our pieces are engineered for 500-year durability, so they become heirlooms rather than disposable furniture.
What solutions do you offer for Menlo Park fences that are damaged by earthquakes or have discolored from the sun?
For earthquake damage, we build fences with flexible joinery that allows the structure to shift with ground movement without cracking. For discoloration, we use a penetrating oil finish that protects against UV rays and coastal fog without sealing in moisture, keeping the white oak's natural color stable while maintaining a tactile surface.
Can I order a custom dining table or bookshelf that matches my existing white oak cabinets?
Yes, we work with homeowners to match the exact grain and finish of existing pieces, including cabinetry. Since we source white oak from the same Kentucky region and use a raw wood finish free of plastic coatings, we can closely replicate the look and feel of your current furniture or cabinets.
Company Overview
White Oak Works is a custom furniture studio based in Menlo Park, California, specializing in handcrafted pieces made from sustainable white oak sourced from Kentucky. Located just a few blocks from downtown Menlo Park and near the historic Allied Arts Guild, the studio serves residents across the San Francisco Bay Area. Every item—from beds and dining tables to dressers and chairs—is engineered for exceptional durability, with dovetail joinery and a raw wood finish that invites touch and connection. The studio intentionally avoids plastic coatings, allowing the natural grain and texture of the wood to remain central to the experience. Beyond furniture, the same craftsmanship extends to custom fences and gates, built to withstand local challenges. For Menlo Park homeowners, common fencing issues include earthquake damage and discoloration from sun and fog. White Oak Works addresses these by using flexible joinery techniques that allow fences and gates to absorb ground movement without cracking, and by applying a penetrating oil finish that resists fading while preserving the wood's tactile quality. The studio’s commitment to longevity is clear: each piece is designed to last 500 years, blending old-world joinery with modern resilience. White Oak Works brings Kentucky white oak to Menlo Park, creating pieces that are both functional and enduring, suited to the unique character of Bay Area living.
