At Bergeron Woodworks, David creates one-of-a-kind handmade frames and furnishings from reclaimed lumber salvaged from historic structures. These materials are diverted from landfills and transformed into unique works of art, retaining the marks of time—texture, patina, and imperfection—that define their character.
Using traditional woodworking techniques and hand-finishing processes, David bridges past and present through functional pieces that celebrate sustainability, craftsmanship, and the enduring value of materials with history.
