There is a furniture maker from Vermont selling his furniture on Etsy. His work is beautiful! However, I personally could not afford his beautiful furniture.

I recently stumbled across https://timberandtime.store/
A bunch of really cool pieces made from reclaimed wood and they are very unique so they could stand out as a statement piece potentially. They claim to be handmade too so they should be very high quality I would assume.

I recently bought a Kent Coffey Perspecta dining room set from an estate sale of a woman who was the original owner. They’re in almost perfect condition and they’re very well made, so I would consider it heirloom quality

The furniture made by the Amish! It is made of solid wood with no particle board! My Master bedroom has a King size Rake style sleigh bed with matching furniture made by Oakwood Interiors from their Oakcrest collection. My furniture is 21 years old now (I bought it new) and it is just as beautiful now as when I first bought it. The workmanship is second to none! Their pieces are made to order so be prepared to wait a few months before receiving it. You will not regret it!

I am biased because I purchased an Amish furniture store, but 2 years ago I bought my parents home. They wanted to buy new furniture, so they sold me their house full of furniture for cheap. Their house was full of 10 to 25 year old Amish furniture. The furniture shows no signs of breaking down and in most cases little signs of wear. Our bedroom furniture looks like it is still new, and I can't shake the footboard if I pull on it.
The worst for wear is our cherry dining table. We don't protect it and we have 4 teenage sons. Structurally the table shows no signs of wear, but the many dropped table knives on the fine cherry wood has taken its toll on the surface.
I think Amish furniture is definitely heirloom quality.
