We are more of a manufacturer than a custom wood shop as we produce our type of European construction cabinets but they can be easily customized during the process. Look through our galleries to see if your cabinet needs are similar to some of our past jobs or send us pictures of what you are considering.
We are very good at what we do but the massive overhead required means we are limited on the work we can accept. Old World Cabinets are designed to mimic the old world look of the English and European manor houses which were almost always added to in succeeding generations. The result is a bit of variation in size and height as the different generations of craftsmen left their mark on the cabinet set.
They basically added on to the cabinets as the need intersected with the extra money. Traditional cabinets are going to bridge the gap between Old World cabinets that are fairly ornate and Modern which are fairly sparse and focus on minimalism. Traditional is always the safest bet when it comes to preserving resale value.

Not gonna sell you anything that isn't a good value and I'll tell you why. Not because I am a good person, bu because I am good to myself. And if I treat you right and the cabinets last a long time you will tell people. You will also tell people if I do a bad job so I won't use risky materials or processes.
Okie’s, the Ikea Alternative
Report
Everyone has looked at the Ikea cabinet line at some point if they were interested in a kitchen remodel. IKEA cabinets are a bargain, but they get the price that low using cheap particle board, substandard construction methods, and selling un-assembled. They do have a place though and in Europe where they came from it is the custom for homes to be sold without kitchen cabinets so the cabinets need to be cheap, modular, and portable.
Past Jobs and Testimonials
Report
Old world style replicates cabinetry in Europe on the old estates. Rich people weren't always rich with cash, so their kitchens grew as they could afford to pay for the work. Uneven heights and styles, staggered depths, and more than a little distressing as some of the cabinets were a century older than the latest additions.
