White glove delivery within Southern California ranges from $150 to $350 for most items, based upon the distance from our workshop at:

641 Gibbons St., Los Angeles, CA 90031

National shipping ranges from $400 to $600 for most items under 150 pounds. National shipping is partial white-glove, meaning the shipper will help arrange the furniture items into your space, but will require assistance from you or another person who is on-site.

Bookends?  We don't need to stinking bookends.  Or we can buy them separately, whatever. 

The Mari's unruly 1.5"-thick natural wood shelves punch well beyond the squared-up frame of this sturdy and stylin' custom book-bearer.  The 1" tube steel extends evenly to the top shelf, gripping it with masterfully capped and coated uprights, for an added design kick.

We love this badass bookshelf so much that we have it on display in our showroom near downtown Los Angeles.  That one has lightly charred reclaimed wood planks with a white frame, which is a great combo shown in photo 3, but the naturally fallen ash with black metal is the rockstar. The stark disparity of light and dark can serve as an effortless trimming to your modern living room, dining room or office. 

We've provided some common bookcase sizing options here, but we can accommodate any dimensions your space or collection requires, just hit us with a Custom Made Quote and we'll get back to you directly.

our urban hardwoods
sycamore, elm & ash

These sustainable planks come from non-farmed trees that recently fell in our metropolitan environment. Local urban-lumber milling companies such as Angel City Lumber and Street Tree Revival will retrieve them and turn them into beautiful dimensional lumber, rather than allowing them to be sent to landfills. We've fostered excellent relationships with these organizations (noble, good-looking heroes whom we love dearly), so they'll call us when the newest batches are about to be dried and milled.

Our Reclaimed Wood
Old-growth Doug fir

We respect the use of all reclaimed wood, but at Parkman we only use salvaged lumber from Los Angeles County structures that were built about 100 years ago or more. This old-growth wood is derived from ancient trees that, thankfully, are no longer being deforested. We prefer this sustainable lumber due to its natural durability and beauty. Conversely, most furniture wood these days comes from farms that cut their crop young, leaving the lumber comparatively soft and bland. These farms also use massive amounts of energy and water, unnecessarily damaging the global environment.

in-house fabrication

& fair wages

We perform all of our woodwork and metalwork in our Los Angeles workshop so that we can personally oversee every aspect of your build. Most shops you'll come across simply design and market products, but don't actually build any furniture, preferring to outsource the physical work to cheaper white-label shops. We lean into the entire process, from inception to inspection, and pay fair wages with benefits to our expert craftspeople.

I am lucky to have found them. My partner and I went to check out the workshop and were met with great customer service, which persisted throughout the process.

For a similar cost to a mid-tier retailer you can get a fully custom piece made just for you, with reclaimed wood you can feel great about. Super happy with it!
