About Dogberry Collections

Our Story DOGBERRY BEGAN IN A VERY "AMERICAN" WAY... … in a little red shed in my backyard. It had dirt floors and a little wood stove for heat. I had a background in woodworking, my brother in business, and our father in finance. So with a little bit of hokey electrical work and an old Shopsmith, we turned the backyard shed into our first wood shop! At first, we started by building tables. Dining tables, coffee tables, sofa tables etc. All with a bit of a rustic-modern vibe that was really inspiring to us at the time. After about a year of prototyping we were excited to share our unique aesthetic with the world so we took our products down to a furniture show in Vegas to do just that! To our surprise, one of our tables even made it on the cover of the trade show magazine. While it was exhilarating to see the interest in our products, things didn’t really take off for Dogberry until we added our Dogberry signature style to fireplace mantels and sliding barn doors. Once we introduced these products to our small business, there was more demand than we could handle! In fact there was so much demand that we shifted our focus completely on these products. We moved out of the backyard shed, and rented a 10,000 sq. ft. building in our little hometown. We quickly started adding employees, some of which were good friends we grew up with. We loved seeing the positive impact we were beginning to have on our small community.Read their story
