Generations of the McMahan family have handcrafted furniture from cherry and walnut lumber. Over the course of 80 years, Eugene McMahan & Son Furniture Company has produced quality antique reproduction furniture, for Shaker Village in addition to residential customers, and furniture in a variety of more contemporary styles.

The business experienced a major setback in 2010 when the furniture company burned to the ground, but the McMahans rebuilt. Within four months they had a new warehouse, and a new beginning.

The McMahans, who are members of the Kentucky Guild of Artists and Craftsmen, as well as Kentucky Crafted, give Amy Hess a lesson in furniture making.

(The business is also known as Campbellsville Handmade Cherry Furniture by Eugene McMahan & Son).
