Christ Reclaimed Furniture

Christ Reclaimed is a furniture company dedicated to breathing new life into old "scrap" wood by creating new, custom furniture pieces. The wood is sourced from dilapidated barns and office buildings throughout the Akron area.

The result is a custom piece with unique stories, both past and present.
