| One interesting part of the story is that Habersham started with old cigar boxes and discarded wooden spools. In 1969, Habersham founder Joyce Eddy was a single mother struggling to support two sons in Clarkesville, GA. Not much later, Joyce drove by a local textile company where she spotted a large pile of discarded wooden spools. She purchased them and set about crafting them into candleholders, towel racks and other practical folk art items. Like some similar cigar boxes, these delightful designs sold extremely well. With the help of her sons and other family members, Joyce soon expanded the offerings to include handcrafted furniture reflecting the American and European design styles of the early 17th and 18th centuries. |

The popularity of these unique furnishings spread quickly. To meet growing production demands without sacrificing her commitment to the handcrafted quality, she enlisted the help of individual woodworkers from her North Georgia region. Because the region had been a center for cabinetmaking since the early 1800s, the area's master craftsmen were very familiar with the time-tested woodworking and finishing techniques Joyce demanded for her growing line. In fact, she even designed her factory to work just as the 18th century cabinetmakers did, with individual artisans hand-finishing, signing and dating each piece of furniture they crafted. |
Now, as then, the Habersham name is synonymous with the fine art of furniture design. And over the years, the line has grown to include furniture, custom cabinetry and accent pieces in an array of rich, opulent finishes and delicate, hand-painted designs. Yet despite its rapid growth, Habersham has never wavered from Joyce Eddy's core business philosophy – that the creation of fine furniture is a true art form demanding that each piece be individually crafted, painted and finished by hand.
