About American Designs

Beautiful rolling hils of Clear Lake, CA.

Bill Nelsen's speciality is the lathe (he turned the posts on the pictures) Each turning is unique to the piece.  I never duplicate a turning except by request from someone who needs to match a similar turning.

Dan's passion is raised panels and intentionally overbuilding for structural soundness.   We are both equally skilled in all areas of furniture making, so view our galleries and choose your craftsman!!

Bill Nelsen and Dan Jurgens have been friends for forty years, and had businesses together. Both helped deplete the Midwest of antiques during the seventies and eighties. When the quality antiques became scarce, it was time to start building the quality antiques of the future.
