Reclaimed Wood Furniture hand-crafted in the Chicago-land area and shipped nation-wide. Shop our website at UrbanWoodGoods.com or call us today at 1-855-966-3466. Email us your project ideas to info@urbanwoodgoods.com   

At Urban Wood Goods we use reclaimed wood from the deconstruction of pre-1920s  structures to build one-of-a-kind modern rustic furniture including dining tables, desks, shelving and more.  We celebrate the history and beauty of Old Growth wood in each piece of reclaimed wood furniture we create. 

Why Choose Wood With a Storied Life?

It's the Right Thing to Do. Re-using the lumber from old homes & buildings keeps this valuable commodity in circulation rather than it ending up in landfills or burn piles.

Unsurpassed Beauty & Character. All of the wood we use is old-growth lumber, originally sawn from some of the first forests to be harvested in the late 1800's and early part of the 1900's. Old-growth wood has been left virtually untouched in abandoned factories and century-old homes and barns throughout the Midwest. These woods are transformed by the natural aging process.

Connection to the Past. Old-growth reclaimed wood has a unique character and feel. It reflects a past when things were done a little bit differently, and gives evidence of another purpose and life that can only be imagined--and now re-imagined as handcrafted furniture made for you.

Higher Density + Harder + Stronger = Higher Quality. The rings are closer together in old-growth lumber because trees grew slower in the denser forests where they had to fight for sunlight and water.

 (Hand-crafted in the Midwestern USA.)

### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Danielle Wittler, Jan. 2024**

> Amazing Service! I was in contact with Melissa for over a year and a half while deciding what shelves to purchase. We are so glad we chose her and Urban Wood Goods. She was professional and kind even when we were being a pain and didnt know what we wanted. She was as patient and responsive as humanly possible. We only had one issue upon receiving the shelves. We thought the bottoms on the wood should also be finished. This was resolved quickly and without hesitation.  The finished product was excellent. Very solid and well made. Would not hesitate to purchase from Urban Wood Goods again.

**★★★★★ — HU-197221493, Dec. 2020**

> UWG built us a beautiful custom dining table, which turned out better than expected. Melissa was easy to work with and very responsive in answering all of our questions. Their pricing and production time was better than all other companies I spoke with, and the finished product looks amazing and has held up very well over the first month of daily use.

**★★★★★ — Susan Ellen Foster, Nov. 2020**

> We had an odd-sized place to fill in our new home.  We chose Urban Wood Goods because of the flexibility of choosing the exact size and finish we needed.  Our completed piece was delivered today and it was beyond our expectations.  There are no words to sufficiently express how pleased we are with this piece.  The customer service was above and beyond; the quality is outstanding--the piece is so well made from the finish to the legs and you would be hard-pressed to find this craftsmanship in any pre-made piece; the shipping was also phenomenal--it was shipped in its own crate made specifically to fit this piece (much like a piece of fine art--which it is).  In summary, the quality is unparalleled and it was totally worth the price and the wait.  I am attaching a picture; however, it can't come close to the piece in person as you would need to see the finish and feel the weight of it.  Don't hesitate ordering from Urban Wood Goods.

**★★★★★ — ekingsborough, Sept. 2020**

> I've ordered two tables from Urban Wood Goods, and they are both gorgeous! The service and craftmanship are both top notch. Would definitely recommend.

**★★★★★ — Emily B, April 2020**

> Urban Wood Goods was great!  From my first interaction with them to the communication on the delivery of my piece - everything was great.  I asked many, many questions and always received a prompt response.  The table I ordered from them (custom measurements) is absolutely beautiful and very well made.  You can tell quality is very important to them.  I also love the fact that they are built on sustainability in the furniture industry.

**★★★★★ — maru parra, Feb. 2020**

> I have no words to describe the table that I got from Urban Wood, it’s so beautiful, solid and heavy!,
> I want to thank their team for such an incredible job! Dealing with them was easy, the table was shipped on time, I liked the fact that it was so easy to get in touch with them. This table was for my mother and she says that it surpassed her expectations!! Thank you guys!

**★★★★★ — HU-781220063, Oct. 2019**

> Great company to work with. Extremely professional and responsive company. Product was received on time and is of the highest quality!

**★★★★★ — Jack Klippel, July 2019**

> Our interior designer steered us to Urban Wood Goods to help furnish the great room in our newly constructed modern farm house in Asheville, NC.  The service and quality and design of the pieces were truly exceptional !

**★★★★★ — GEORGE SCHWEITZER, May 2019**

> Ordered a table online. first time with this company but impressed with their product line and customer service.  the table is perfect.  excellent workmanship and very satisfied.

**★★★★★ — Bryan May, April 2019**

> We ordered a custom counter height table for casual kitchen dining area.  We have had the table for 3 years now and it is perfect.  We ordered it with the clear finish and I apply beeswax every couple of months.  We will buy more

**★★★★★ — Greg A., Jan. 2019**

> I am a repeat customer of Urban Wood Goods. My new tables are amazing and the custom designed shelving unit (to house my turntable and LP's) is absolutely perfect.  This is a massive piece of furniture and working with their fabrication team on the structural design was easy because they spent the time to actually listen to what I was looking for...
>
> My order for the business a couple of years ago was also perfect! Quality is beyond expectation. I ordered all  3/4 charcoal black steel pipe with the 2-1/2" thick Douglas Fir on both orders. (paid more for the 2-1/2" thickness but well worth it especially since I wanted each piece to stand out in the room)
>
> If you are considering ordering from Urban Wood Goods, don't hesitate.

**★★★★★ — Katie Borth, Aug. 2018**

> We love the table that we had custom made.  Shipping was quick and it was great to work with Melissa.  We will be spending many years together making memories at this table.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Base** *(in Product Questions)*

Can you post a oucture of the base?  The description is not adequate when considering ordering a $2200 table.  Thanks.

A: Lisa you can view images on our website of this table. Sorry for the delayed response. http://www.urbanwoodgoods.com/Brooklyn-Modern-Rustic-Reclaimed-Wood-Dining-Table-p/bk-dt.htm

**Q: Woudl like a table that seats 16 in this style.** *(in Product Questions)*

Can you do a custom table, single tree, for 16? 7 on each side and two chairs on ends? 

Sam Cunningham

A: Sam

Yes we can. These aren't made from a single tree though. These are thick planks from floor joists of old buildings that we join to make custom tables. We can make a table to seat 16 for you.

Thanks

Erin

**Q: Outdoor chairs for wooden table** *(in Product Questions)*

Are these for outdoor? Can they hold up with weather since they have the wood seat?

A: These are indoor chairs but you can try the solid metal for outdoor use.

**Q: Console table** *(in Product Questions)*

Can someone give the correct height dimensions for this table, please???

A: Yes, it's a typo. All of our console tables are 30" table height but can be made custom to the height you need.

**Q: QUICKER SHIPMENT** *(in Product Questions)*

HELLO DO YOU HAVE AN EARLIER DATE THAT WE CAN RECIEVE THIS TABLE>
