"After graduating from San Jose State University in 1972 with a degree in sculpture, Salvatore Maccarone went on to do his art in a very interesting way"                              This quote sums up thirty years in the business of making custom furniture & sculptural pieces for hotels, theme parks, and businesses, corporate offices, and private concerns all across the U.S., and in three other countries.  Responsible for the design and construction of thousands of commissioned pieces, and many restored historic buildings, Sal has had a very unique career.  Innovating, and forerunning many artistic concepts, he has gone beyond woodworking with techniques and stylings that are new.  This page is a means of sharing some of this work with the world.  These are a few of his favorites which will be changed from time to time so keep dialing in.  We hope that you enjoy looking at this work.
