Honolulu Furniture Company, Custom Furniture Maker Honolulu / Kakaako

"Thorben built our kitchen island that looks like a beautiful freestanding piece of furniture, and refinished a 1940s cabinet built by a grandfather. Both experiences were so positive that we now have more projects in progress. Great communication, thoughtful recommendations on functionality and aesthetics, and beautiful meticulous work."

"If you have custom furniture needs, I highly recommend Thorben and Honolulu Furniture Company. As an interior designer, what I procure for my clients has to be functional, beautiful and of exceptional quality. He has made a number of pieces for my projects, both free-standing and built-in. Thorben being a master craftsman as well as an artist, not only delivers on all fronts, he is a pleasure to work with as well. I look forward to many more opportunities to collaborate. I am so glad I found Thorben, and you will be too!"

"Very good work, quick, accurate, responsive, highly recommend. We asked Thorben to refinish a dinning room table that was twisted, uneven, and poorly made. He listened to our concerns and quickly made a plan. He recut the edges, flattened the top, and rejoined the dinning room table. My wife and I love the table and will use him in the future. Honestly, the pictures can not capture the beauty. Thank you, Honolulu Furniture Company."

"Highly recommended! (This is my second project with Thorben) Unable to find a readymade credenza that I liked, I designed my own and turned to Thorben to make my vision real. The result is perfect! Thorben is a master craftsman, he is also an engineer, problem-solver, very knowledgeable + has a wonderful design sensibility. Wood selection + finish were extremely important to the ensure that this physically heavy + complex design appear ethereal + serene. Thorben suggested ash which he bleached + lime-finished. The finished result is exceptional. Thorben is a true pleasure to work with, always responsive + respectful of time + budget. I have been very happy with every aspect of this project + am in love with the finished piece. Again, highly recommended!"

"Thorben is incredibly knowledgeable and creates unique pieces that reflect his expertise in German craftsmanship and Hawaiian hardwoods. He built a custom piece for me and worked with me every step of the way to make sure that the piece would fit my needs. I will certainly work with him again for any future heirloom quality furniture needs."
