Preserving Honor | Preserving Craft
What We Do
We honor Veterans by telling their stories of sacrifice and service to our nation through custom, handcrafted, heirloom-quality chairs that hold their stories in digital form through the most current technology for generations to come.
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
— Maya Angelou
Why Stories
Our stories create threads that weave a tapestry of duty, honor, and country. Too often, our stories are forgotten or, worse, never told. Therefore, we endeavor to preserve and archive these stories for future generations.

Why Chairs
We see the humble chair, individually handcrafted for the Veteran, as a symbol of service.
A chair sits quietly in the corner of a home providing comfort to a family, just as a service member provides comfort and protection to our nation through sacrifice and service
a momento of honor
How we do this
We match a Maker to a Veteran to create a unique chair and provide a storytelling experience to share the Veteran's individual story of service and sacrifice. At presentation of the chair, we record a sit-down interview of the veteran telling their story. This story is then linked to the chair using a unique digital footprint, thus forever preserving the story to that chair.
