What Our Clients Have To Say
We had a number of pieces, both big and small, done by Ian over the last year. They are absolutely pieces of art and all of them exceeded our expectations. His designs are extremely well thought out. They are beautiful yet very pragmatic and useable. The attention to detail is spectacular. By the time each piece was finished we were already emotionally attached to it.
Our breakfast bar looks as good today as when installed a year and a half ago, and that is excellent! It is a central point of pride that we take in our new kitchen. It is always commented on for its beauty and craftsmanship by guests in our home. We particularly enjoyed working with Ian in the design stage and the final result was better than we had imagined.
Thanks again for your great work in our home!
The butsudan arrived last night and is truly gorgeous. I love the inlay–I’ve always had an affinity for oak trees and the butsudan’s doors are very special. I will spend many hours with my gohonzon and butsudan.
Thank you so much for your craftsmanship.
I have received my butsudan and set it up, and I just wanted to let you know how beautiful it is and how much I appreciate your fine craftsmanship. It has been my pleasure doing business with you. Nam myoho renge kyo, and thank you so much!
We originally purchased 2 pieces by Cambrian Company at a local artists collective. We were so pleased with the detailed craftsmanship from the joinery to the finishes, we contacted Ian to commission five additional pieces. As for communication, Ian “listened” attentively to what we wanted, he came to our house to measure and assess what woods would flow in our craftsman home. Ian asked us a number of questions aimed at ensuring we would be satisfied. He left nothing to chance.
Ian custom built a 7 foot long dresser for our bedroom which is simply stunning. His attention to detail from the custom marquetry design to procuring special pull knobs from France to match our existing cabinetryresulted in a one of a kind piece of functional art that we’ll enjoy for a lifetime.
Ian’s craftsmanship is utterly sublime — it is absolutely perfect. Each item is an art piece onto its self. We highly and enthusiastically recommend Cambrian Company to anyone looking for fine wood craftsmanship, and we plan to use him again ourselves in the future.
Ian created a most magnificent Butsudan. His outstanding artistry with wood brings his creations to a splendor that lifts the soul conveying beauty and grace. Thank you Ian from the bottom of my heart.
Hi Ian! This is a long overdue. Thank You for creating my beautiful Butsudan! It is such a piece of art. I recently moved from RI to Myrtle Beach SC and discovered one of the woman here that I practice with in the SGI has one of your Butsudan’s as well. Her’s also has the Lotus Flowers like mine. Isn’t that uncanny and great! Small world.
Ian, it is beautiful. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are remarkable! I have a group coming over tomorrow to assist with enshrining the gohonzon into it’s “new home”.
Thank you!
