In 1956, Raymond
Enkeboll began the company as a furniture shop in Los Angeles: an emphasis on
quality and devotion to detail quickly established the brand as an industry
standout. In the late 1980’s , the company’s focus began to shift to the design
of architectural woodcarvings and embellishments carved out of the finest red
oak and hard maple. The intent was to
create embellishments that could enhance a variety of settings. Each new piece
begins as a sketch; the experienced design team envisions how it will translate
three dimensionally. With the help of
sophisticated carving equipment, hand-selected raw lumber is then expertly
shaped and sanded into exquisite forms; Enkeboll takes great pride in its
products. From material selection, to procurement, to production, Enkeboll goes
to great lengths to produce product of superior quality. The most challenging
and painstaking part of the process is the raw lumber selection. We strive for
100% clarity and color match eliminating mineral streaks, knots, and color
variations between pieces of wood originating from different parts of the tree.
Each piece is individually inspected prior to shipping and the craftsman puts
his personal signature on the back of every piece as if the piece was his own.
Orders are shipped directly from the company’s Carson, California manufacturing
facility in environmentally-safe packing. Today, the
company's product line has expanded to include over 1,000 items produced by
talented and dedicated employees. The lifeblood of the company is its products,
and Enkeboll has always led the way in innovation, quality and meticulous
attention to detail. We know that our customers are always searching for fresh,
new designs to incorporate into their projects. Moving ahead into
the future, Enkeboll looks forward to a continued tradition of quality and
excellence, providing our customers with new as well as classic styles to
complement their projects. We will work hard to maintain our reputation as the
Gold Standard in Architectural Woodcarvings.
