John Gallis

John Gallis



John Gallis has been fashioning custom furniture for over twenty-five years and has owned and designed furniture for Norseman Designs West in Cody, Wyoming, since 1995. Since moving west from New York City, where he was chief cabinetmaker at Bloomingdale's in Manhattan and created all their interior design specialty pieces, he has designed furniture that is displayed in Cody and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Bozeman, Montana.

John designs his pieces based on the feel of the wood, the flow of the grain and of course the customer's wishes. Thus, no two pieces are alike. Each piece is hand crafted and designed by John. He says "My style of woodworking combines the appearance of movement with sleek design to create a smooth flow that bridges the gap between décor, rooms and architecture. There's nothing like the beauty and natural grain of wood with its graceful and unassuming presence to add life to a room."

Winner of many national awards for fine western furniture and woodworking, John's work brings together imaginative sensibility and striking elegance. He can create a piece to tie together your existing decorating schemes or you can choose from his pieces on display. Or you can have him create a piece designed to your specifications. This Web site presents a sampling of the western and rustic furniture pieces that John has created over the years. Please have a look and dare to dream.
