High quality, solid hardwood furniture. Nestled on the western face of Piney Mountain, a foothill of the Great Smoky Mountains in the Cherokee National Forest, is a small wood shop from which beautiful things emerge. Smoky Mountain Woodworks - creators of wonderful custom designed and built solid hardwood furniture for you and your family - is owned and operated by Marie Bittinger.

With more than 20 years as a designer and seamstress, Marie's eye for color and form enable her to envision Smoky Mountain Woodworks "Functional Art". Her husband's 25+ years as a furniture maker, teacher, and author provide the knowledge and skill needed to transform Marie's visions into the wonderful items you see here. Their "girls"; Dolly and Zadie serve as Shop Supervisor and Office Manager.

If you live locally you may visit our workshop to discuss details on a commissioned piece. PLEASE MAKE AN APPOINTMENT! While visitors are welcome at our workshop, we'd hate for you to arrive at a time when we're in the middle of something we can't interrupt, out making deliveries or on a supply run. Let us know when you'll be in the area and we'll be happy to meet with you.
