My Father and My Mentor
Raised around makers, I learned early that the best pieces aren’t just built—they’re shaped by time, intention, and handwork.
After my father’s passing, a worn leather recliner became the catalyst for something more. Rather than letting it go, we transformed it—preserving its character while giving it new purpose.
That moment defined everything.
Not just made—meant to last.
Founded in 2020, Altered 71 is grounded in thoughtful design, honest materials, and small-batch production.
Each piece is handcrafted to age beautifully, move with you, and become part of your everyday.
