For over four decades, Master Finisher Stephen Gamble has crafted custom hardwood floors, fine finishes, and bespoke millwork for the world’s leading architects, designers, and clients. His exclusive designs and collaborations transcend any singular style, spanning French Normandy castles, New England farmhouses, Southampton beach homes, and Manhattan penthouses. His meticulous attention to detail has been widely recognized, with features in Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Galerie Magazine, and more.
Stephen’s journey began in 1977 when he founded Stephen Gamble Woodworks in his garage. Originally focused on furniture and millwork, his exceptional skill and artistry quickly gained national attention. Over time, he transitioned to creating one-of-a-kind floors and architectural millwork using both new and reclaimed wood, establishing Stephen Gamble Historic Floors and Finishes. Each project is handcrafted in the USA, blending Old-World techniques with enduring design.
Today, Stephen’s legacy continues with the next generation of the Gamble family. Inspired by his dedication to quality, his children David and Laura have introduced a new brand featuring an accessible line of pre-finished hardwood flooring. With finishes personally selected by Stephen, this collection embodies his artistic vision and the story of his lifelong work.
Whether you’re looking for a bespoke masterpiece or a thoughtfully curated collection that reflects Stephen’s design philosophy, we are committed to bringing elegance, authenticity, and superior artistry to your home.
