Krovel Furniture Co. is a woodshop founded by Tim Krovel in Portland, Maine, that has been creating simple and beautiful hardwood furniture since 2014. The company sells directly to customers to maintain modest retail prices. They ship their handmade pieces worldwide.
All furniture is fabricated and finished in-house at their Portland workshop. Krovelmade uses domestically grown hardwoods from East Coast suppliers, including American Black Walnut, White Oak, and Northern Hard Maple. A signature detail is the "waterfall" effect, where the wood grain flows continuously over the edges of a piece.
The product line focuses on solid wood case goods, with a notable collection of "floating" furniture like nightstands and media consoles designed for wall-mounting. The design philosophy centers on clean lines and well-proportioned shapes. Simple joinery techniques help keep the products accessible.
The company demonstrates a commitment to sustainability through several practices. For each purchase, a donation is made to OneTreePlanted.org. They also use VOC-free, food-safe Tung Oil finishes and ship products using biodegradable corn-starch peanuts.
