Celebrating over 26 years of crafting in the Texas Hill Country, we provide our customers with quality work that meets the needs of individuals and companies alike.
James Salter Craftsman was established in 1989 when its founder, James Salter, started hand crafting Shaker and Pennsylvania Dutch style furniture and toys. Over time, what was once a hobby developed into a professional craft. While still producing top-quality wooden products, James expanded his skill set to provide cabinetry, custom engraving, part manufacturing, and prototyping to various organizations throughout the Hill Country.
After moving manufacturing facilities twice, his business expanded to an 8,000 plus square foot facility right off Kerrville's Junction Highway.
