Furniture Craftsman Phillip Eisenmann is Artist in the Library for January and February

GILMANTON — The furniture crafting skill of Gilmanton resident Phillip Eisenmann will be featured at the Gilmanton Year-Round Library during January and February. A reception for the artist is scheduled for Saturday afternoon, January 5, from 1:30 to 3. One of the pieces on display will be available for bidding as an item in the silent auction to be held at the annual Library

Icebreaker evening on February 16. A visit to the Library will allow people to submit bids ahead of time.

Eisenmann has been designing and building custom furniture and cabinetry for more than 10 years. After graduating from the University of New Hampshire in 1995, Phil returned home to his native southern Ohio where he began working with a small finish carpentry crew and later a small custom furniture and cabinetmaking company.

In 2000, after returning to New England, Phil launched Eisenmann Woodworking in his new home town of Gilmanton, to continue building and designing custom furniture and cabinetry based on traditional designs, but with the practicality of today's needs and

lifestyles.

Eisenmann Woodworking specializes in heirloom quality Early American and Shaker style casework and furniture, but the portfolio includes custom designs ranging from Adirondack (Camp) Furniture, to Arts and Craft Styles, to Contemporary Designs. Being a small shop, Eisenmann Woodworking takes great pride in working intimately with clients on every aspect of their commission, whether it is a single Tavern Table or an entire Kitchen.
