Black River Mission was founded in 1985 by Paul and Bonita Varney of Cooperstown, NY. Since the beginning our pieces have stood the test of time, inspired by the old masters from Stickley to Limbert.

Here at Black River Mission, we specialize in building custom furnishings and accents to the taste of each individual client. From picking the finest of woods, to applying the most exacting of details our pieces are treated as works of art.

Black River Mission holds true to the techniques of the old masters by using through-tenon joinery, a period finish, full grain leathers, and hand-hammered copper hardware. Each step of the process begins and ends here in our workshop, and no piece is shipped until it reaches our high-reaching standards.
