James Bookcase with Cabinet Base

In a quiet Vermont workshop nestled between maple-covered hills, master craftsman Walter Jennings began shaping what would become the Arched Heritage Cabinet. Inspired by the charm of 1940s Americana, Walter used solid oak—hand-selected for its rich grain—and joined each piece with traditional mortise and tenon techniques. He brushed on a protective finish that preserves the wood’s warmth while allowing its natural patterns to shine through. Every curve, every edge was aged just enough to feel storied, yet polished to maintain its glow. Designed as both a writing desk and storage piece, the cabinet brings functionality and nostalgic beauty into any space. Built to last, it’s a tribute to a time when furniture was made by hand, to be passed down.

• Thank you for welcoming the Arched Heritage Cabinet into your home. To keep it looking its best for years to come, here are a few helpful care tips:
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged sun exposure may fade the natural oak grain. Place your cabinet away from windows or use curtains during peak daylight hours.
• Clean Gently: Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners—mild soap and water are enough. Always wipe in the direction of the wood grain.
• Watch the Humidity: Oak is natural wood, so try to keep your home between 40–60% humidity to prevent cracking or warping.
• Use Coasters or Pads: Place felt pads under décor or writing tools to protect the finish.
• Tighten Occasionally: Natural wood can settle—check and gently tighten screws or joints annually if needed.
