Our 
Story

About Us-Photo

Welcome to the Rail & Stile Home Furnishings Studio! We are a husband and wife team who have the passion and professional skills to make “vintage and heirloom” work for today’s lifestyle. We have built an amazing team of professional refinishers and designers with strong attention to craftsmanship, quality, and detail to produce exquisite and stylish furniture. 

 

Most recently, we launched our debut furniture Collection “Modern Ming,” which offers vintage designs for modern-day sensibilities. The inspiration comes from our history with fine vintage furniture, which often pleases the eye but is proportionally too small. Each piece of Modern Ming is sized for modern interiors and handcrafted in our workshop by our team of carpenters in downtown Raleigh, NC.  We are proud to be a North Carolina-based company hiring local craftspeople. 


In addition, for our local clients, we have a 10,000 sq ft Showroom in downtown Raleigh just waiting to be explored. Come visit!
