Frequently Asked Questions: ByAmish Handcrafted Furniture
Style
Are the photos the only styles of furniture you have?
Our Amish craftsmen create furniture in the Mission, Shaker, and Country styles, among others. The spareness and utility
of these styles are in keeping with the Amish mode of life, and many of the Amish have furniture similar to this in their own
homes.
Can I select from any of the 8 stain samples for any piece of furniture?
All styles can be made with the wood, stains, and handles of your choice, to create furniture that fits your home.
Can I get a stain sample?
If you are not quite sure which choice to go with, please contact us to receive a small sample. Let us know the type of wood and stain you would like to see, and we will mail you a sample
square (aproximately 3" x 3").
