Most of Jeffrey Greene's furniture is
made to order so the number of available pieces is limited. However, we
always maintain a representative sampling of his work on display at the Ball
& Claw. Please call for pricing and shipping information. With
the exception of large case pieces, most items can be crated and shipped by
FedEx 3rd day delivery.
