A Hawkeye haven for Plain woodworking

Amish have found a home in Iowa since the first settlers arrived in the Kalona area of southeast Iowa in the 1840s.   Amish furniture in Iowa is a relatively more recent phenomenon.  Amish have long found a happy home on the farm, with dairies and cash crops providing a living for Amish families for generations.

Iowa Amish furniture craftsmen typically work from shops located on the home property

In recent decades an entrepreneurial trend has swept Amish society.  Ever-large families and high land prices in their traditional areas have driven Amish to open a wide range of small businesses, including dry goods and crafts stores, salvage groceries, metal and machine shops, engine repair, and numerous others.  The wood industry has proven most popular for Amish, however, with a wide range of wood-related businesses emerging, furniture-making chief among them.

Amish have proven adept at crafting a diverse range of home furnishings.  Amish furniture is not just plain and simple, running the gamut from the traditional styles such as Mission, Shaker, Queen Anne and others, to contemporary styles at home in an urban loft or suburban household.  Amish have developed a deserved reputation for quality craftsmanship.  Perusing the literature potential buyers will also notice an emphasis on hardwood construction over particle board, veneer and pressed wood.  Oak, quarter-sawn oak, maple, cherry, and walnut are commonly-used woods in Amish furniture workshops.

Amish furniture craftsmen are remarkably versatile, stepping outside of their plain sensibilities to customize furniture to client’s needs.  Custom furniture craftsmanship is frequently seen among Amish, in addition to standard furniture lines.  Amish entrepreneurs show a high responsiveness to trends, as well as exhibiting a creative side in innovating new designs and styles.

Iowa Amish furniture locations

Iowa’s largest Amish settlements are found in three locations: 1) Kalona, in Washington and Johnson Counties in SE Iowa; 2) Bloomfield, in David County, also in the southeast, and 3) Buchanan County, in northeastern Iowa (Read more on Iowa Amish).

Amish furniture seekers, looking for Amish furniture direct from the source, are probably better served in the first 2 of these communities, which are more progressive relative to the highly conservative Buchanan County Amish.  Higher levels of technology generally permit Amish more versatility and scale in furniture production;  however more conservative Amish communities also produce furniture, though often on a smaller scale.

Like Amish in most other states, Iowa’s Amish population continues to grow.  New generations of Amish follow in parents’ footsteps in opening wood working shops.  Iowa Amish furniture seekers have a number of options, from finding Amish furniture direct at the source, or by purchasing it from a range of dealers across the Hawkeye State, or visiting an online Amish furniture dealer from the comfort of home.

    2. marlen mason

      i am looking for a amish builder to build a cabin either here on site or delivered to my home in kingsley ia do you tjink you can help me find someone thanks marlen mason

      1. Amish cabin builder - Iowa

        Marlen, I am not sure about Amish cabin makers in your area but maybe someone who sees this could pass along the request. There are Amish who do that kind of work but I am just not aware of who exactly does it in Iowa. I hope to have those kinds of listings available at some point in future.

        Adam same for your tree removal request. I hope you’ve been able to find someone in the meantime. There are loggers and wood dealers among the Amish as well.

      2. Erin

        Where are you located in IA? There is an Amish gentlemen in Osakis, MN that makes beautiful log cabins. I can give you his address and a phone number. His english neighbor delivers messages to him.

      Question about Antique Piece We Just Bought

      We just boughjt an antique pie safe made by LC Wilson of Iowa. Does anybody have any information about this manufacturer or furniture.

      Merry Christmas and Thank You.

      1. Michael going by the name it doesn’t sound like it’s of Amish origin. Also the Amish furniture industry is a relatively recent phenomenon so the number of antiques in circulation made by a bona fide Amish company would be low.

        1. Michael Cowan

          Thank you, Erik, for your time and knowledge. We love our newly purchased antique (circa 1865) and were reaching out to try to find out some of its history.

          I hope the new year is a happy one for you and your family.

      Looking for direct source

      Hello, I am looking for a direct source for hand made furniture. I love the quality and the lasting power of handcrafted furniture. Is there towns I can go to, to meet someone? Do the makers finance any purchases or is it pay up front?
      Thank you

      1. Direct Amish furniture in Iowa

        Kyle in Iowa there are definitely Amish woodworkers in the two large communities at Kalona (Washington/Johnson County), and Bloomfield (Davis County, both are in Southeast Iowa). I don’t know how many retail vs. wholesale but it’s quite possible that some do. These are both communities of around 1000+ Amish population. On finance you’ll probably find there are different ways to do it depending on the seller.

      comment on Amish Furniture Iowa

      Hello, I have a solid cherry, drop leaf table, 4 chairs and china cabinet in a Queen Anne style, that my grandmother purchased in 1958. My mother told me it was made at Amana Colonies. How can I find it’s value, is there a good market for it, and how would I go about selling to someone who appreciates what they are?

      Thank you

      lumber salvage

      We have a large cabinet and counter (circa 1917)hand made out of yellow pine. We have to remove it as we are re doing our kitchen. We would gldly give it to anyone who would like to salvage the lumber (drawers, doors, counter-top) Lumber like this is nearly impossible to find and I hate to destroy it.

      I purchased a 4 foot poly glider (Adirondack) in black and cherry in 2009. The seat middle support broke at the bolt that connects to the back middle support. Where can I get a replacement part for the support that broke. Thanks for the help.

    15. Your website needs to be updated.

      Your website needs to be updated. Kalona Furniture no longer exists. JK Creative Wood is now the closest place to Kalona to buy Amish furniture. We feature dining furniture and custom designed bedroom furniture. Our Amish furniture is authentically Amish, not factory built.

      furniture

      several years ago I purchased a china cabinet and a large glass cabinet to hold my collectables. they are both in oak and in excellent condition. I purchased them east of Centerville on highway 2 but cannot remember the name of the place. I do know that Yoder was in the name. Can you help me find out what the name of the place? I need to contact them and see if they take furniture on consignment since I am moving. thanks, mary

        Mary, this reminds me of Yoder’s Indian Creek Furniture of Milton, Iowa, unless you had something in mind in Bloomfield, Iowa.

      My father recently passed away leaving me a complete antique repair shop specializing in antiques from the 1800’s to present. Most are hand tools and carving related items. Many of these tools date back to the early 1900’s (Located in Marion Iowa)

      I would love to see thee tools go to someone that could use them.

      Looking for brand and type of finish used on porch swing

      We bought a beautiful wooden porch swing at the Amish Country store about 2 summers ago from your store. I would like to put the same finish on it as what was put on it when it was built. Is there a way I could find out what brand and type of finish was put on it? Barb Mader barbmader@gmail.com

    20. Looking for an Amish repair person in NE Texas

      We bought a solid wood log bedroom suite from an Amish store in Redwater Texas a few years back. Now the furniture seems to have lost its integrity and is not nearly as solid as it originally was. I have noticed this blog has helped provide a medium between builders and customers and was hoping to find someone else here in NE Texas to possibly help with the repair.
