American Furniture Maker
Brian Reid is a designer and maker whose bespoke one-of-a-kind furniture is made in the American studio furniture tradition of Sam Maloof.
The highest level of craftsmanship is exhibited in Brian's heirloom quality pieces whether it is a hall table, console or custom cabinet with signature features including Asian or bird beak joinery and intricate hand-pierced or stack-cut, inlaid/parquetry designs.
Reid's furniture can often be seen and appreciated at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship, Rockport
