I'm inspired by the work of the late Sam Maloof and have taken classes with Hal Taylor. Recently, I've broadened my work to include hard wood cutting boards and other custom made furniture. I specialize in unusual and contemporary styles although I appreciate and embrace classic styles as well. I'm confident that if you have a vision or an idea, I can build it.

Another beautiful box by Jiri from Beautiful Rockers
by Nancy G. Jul 18th 2012
Jiri Kalina has made four incredible custom wooden boxes for me. It all started with a request for one dovetailed box. As simple as a wooden box might seem, Jiri worked with me and helped complete my 'vision' by showing me additional options - like locks, removable trays, feet and handles. He also helped with the selection of wood. He clearly loves his craft. I had originally wanted one box to hold ' family treasures ' - but when it arrived, I quickly realized there would be a family fight over it! I was so pleased with the original box that I immediately commissioned three more boxes. I now have a beautiful box for each family member. Each box will be like a time capsule holding small pieces of family history. I couldn't be more delighted. I'm just trying to come up with an excuse to have one more gorgeous box made for me!

Repair to a small, ornately carved vintage florentine picture frame
by Joe P. Jun 05th 2012
Fantastic job repairing this delicate antique frame! I was thoroughly pleased with the craftsman's excellent work duplicating the lost pieces and positioning them so that you couldn't tell they had ever been missing. Very reasonable price, as well!

men's jewelry box for pocket squares and cufflinks
by Lauren D. Mar 07th 2013
Jiri made me a custom men's cufflinks / jewelry box - and it was absolutely perfect. He was professional and timely as well. The jewelry box came out just as I had hoped. The quality of material was very high. I also loved the detailing he added. I would definitely order from Jiri again.
