As early as 1972, Artistry Masters of Woodcraft™ founder John Tedesco, was following his passion for woodcraft, as an apprentice under master craftsman, Warren Dill, of Boynton Beach. By the age of 20, Tedesco was lead finisher at Blums of Boca, then the most exclusive furniture store in South Florida. His natural talent earned him a reputation in the industry as "The Kid with the Golden Hands". At just 23 years old, Tedesco was in business for himself, working by request for an elite clientele worldwide. He applied innovative techniques in his work, and was faux finishing decades before the term was even invented. Tedesco extended his talents to creating wall murals and experimented with simulating different finishes on every surface imaginable. After almost two decades perfecting his craft, Tedesco decided to bring his artistry closer to home, and apply his unique techniques exclusively to furniture Artistry Masters of Woodcraft™ would manufacture.Today, Tedesco oversees a thirty man studio where the company's artisans create exquisite furniture using the techniques that he has perfected through decades of finishing and manufacturing. Tedesco's daughters, Christine Tedesco, formally trained artist and Certified Interior Decorator, and Teresa Rose Tedesco, Certified Graphics Designer, now both work side by side with their father, creating the new "Artistry Masters of Woodcraft™".
