Tennessee Woodworks is a custom furniture maker located in Fairview, Tennessee, just outside Nashville. The business designs, hand-crafts, and hand-finishes farmhouse-style furniture from solid wood. Customers can shop by room or design their own pieces from scratch, choosing the style, size, colors, and seating options to suit their space. The company’s stated mission is “to provide an exceptional customer experience with every handcrafted and hand finished piece of furniture” that comes out of its workshop.
Products
Tennessee Woodworks produces furniture across several categories. Dining room offerings include tables, chairs, benches, buffets, and servers, and customers can design their own custom farmhouse table sets. Kitchen pieces include islands, workcenters, and butcher block cutting boards. Living room items include coffee tables, end tables, and sofa tables, while bedroom furniture covers beds, dressers, nightstands, and chests. The company also makes office furniture such as desks and bookcases, along with Shaker-style collections.
The primary material is solid oak, with walnut and hard maple used for cutting boards, and the company notes it works with locally sourced hardwoods. Multiple stain and paint color options are available for customization. Guides are offered to help customers choose the right table size and shape for their space.
For customers who do not see exactly what they are looking for in the existing collections, the company invites custom build requests through its contact form, asking for the customer’s name, email, phone number, and a description of the project so the details can be discussed. This made-to-order approach lets buyers specify style, size, colors, and seating to suit a particular room, working from the same solid-wood construction and hand-finishing used across the company’s standard pieces.
About
Tennessee Woodworks is owned by Eddie Zingleman and his wife Katie Zingleman. According to the company’s account, in the fall of 2016 Eddie left a healthcare career after developing a degenerative eye disease that caused legal blindness, and set out to build a basic farm table for the home he and Katie had just purchased. Using basic tools and construction lumber in his garage, that first project grew into a woodworking venture. Over the next two years he studied woodworking fundamentals and traditional furniture craftsmanship, and his handcrafted tables began selling through multiple retail locations. Rising demand led the business to move from a home garage to a dedicated workshop. The company has been featured on the Whispers and Bricks Podcast.
