CHM is a family-owned and operated business, serving San
Francisco, the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond, specializing
in woodcarving, reproduction and antique restoration.
It began 36 years ago in Istanbul, when CHM's master
woodcarver, Cemil Akgul, discovered a passion for working with
wood under the tenacious guidance and knowledge of his late
father-in-law. In time, Cemil became highly recognized in
Istanbul for his unique style and quality of workmanship. When
he was made an offer to continue his trade with an invitation
from Israel, he took the opportunity and continued his mastery
in woodcarving and antique restoration abroad.
Now, having continued the trade for 16 years in the US, his
business opens in San Francisco with the help of his son,
Hakan, who is an apprentice in the making.
In their Bayshore neighborhood shop, along with a team of
other artisans, they produce work of exceptional quality while
maintaining reasonable wholesale prices. |
