Stone Brewery Liberty Station

Stone Brewery Liberty Station - Just another fun day in Whiskey Barrel Chairs Stone Brewery Liberty Station – Just another fun day

Today was nice and relaxing day for the Hungarian Workshop. The best part was that it ended at out favorite place, Stone Brewery Liberty Station! No matter how hard the day was, as long as it leads to relaxing in a Whiskey Barrel Chair and enjoying a high quality beer; it is OK with us!

Wine Barrel Chairs at Makers Place San Diego California

The day started out with an open house at Makers Place San Diego CA. It is a workshop where I do all my work and has helped me fast forward this business. Its has been just over a year since I joined the felicity. The entire shop has pretty much kick started the Hungarian Workshop and has turned it to where it is today. During the open house I had a chance to meet and talk to potential customers which is always exciting. Communicating and connecting with people  is very fun especially when they are thrilled about our products. A great benefit was I had a chance to network and meet some people who work at different wineries. Finding a another good source for material is definitely a plus when it comes to this business. Locating barrels can be a pain in the butt when you cant find them, so whenever we have a chance to meet a new supplier we don’t let it slip through.

After the open house at Makers Place it was time to head over to the local hang out: Stone Brewery Liberty Station. Even on a Sunday afternoon the place is was full and busy. Having a place so close by that carries my line of  Whiskey Barrel furniture is amazing!!! Anytime I want come by and see happy faces in my chairs, this is the place to be.

Wooden Adirondack Chairs – An American Classic

Hi and Welcome to the Hungarian Workshop! My name is Balazs Moldovan and I am pleased to welcome you to our website. Let me take you on a quick tour and show you our versions of Wooden Adirondack Chairs made out of Wine & Whiskey Barrels. So far we have turned well over 170 French & American White Oak barrels into comfortable and elegant furniture. I have done work with several restaurants, hotels and private buyers. One of our main customer is Stone Brewing Company in our home town of sunny San Diego.

The first stop in this blog will be out Whiskey Barrel Furniture. If you are a fan of Whiskey or Bourbon these are the ideal wooden Adirondack chairs for you. We took old barrels from Kentucky and with a little bit of sanding and T.L.C. you’d surprised what great material was hidden underneath. The distilleries char the inside of the barrel which create that great flavor and color in the whiskey. With some light sanding and an oil finish, really makes the oak’s natural patina pop out show of their previous life’s story. All pieces are handmade and created for comfort as well as elegance.

Our second stop will be for our Wine Barrel wooden Adirondack chairs. Since wine is enjoyed by many people and because we live so close to wine country it’s no wonder why these are in our top selling items. The kind of colors that are left behind on the French Oak staves are pretty much irreplicable. The wine usually will leave a red, burgundy and dark purple natural stains behind. Wine Barrels have a bigger curve in the center which contours to your back and supports your body through out. After seeing and sitting in one of our chairs you will never look at a barrel the same way again.

The Timeless Style Of Reclaimed Wood Furniture

 Reclaimed Wood Furniture: Made from used Wine Barrels by The Hungarian WorkshopReclaimed Wood Furniture

Reclaimed wood furniture is growing more popular every day. Which is a great thing because there is plenty of good material out there that sometimes goes to waste. Whether it’s wood, metal or fabric you can always give a second life to anything with a little bit of creativity.

Our reclaimed wood furniture made out of Wine & Whiskey barrels have been the Hungarian Workshop’s number one selling items. I started using French & American Oak barrel about a year ago and I have not had a chance to work with anything else. Needless to say I feel pleased and gratified knowing that I have turned over 160 used barrels into furniture that will last a life time.

Finding the barrels can be tricky. I have ran into trouble tracking down quality barrels in the past when I would receive larger orders. Finding wine barrels here in Southern California thankfully isn’t too hard. However when it comes to Whiskey Barrel Furniture, it is a whole different story. Luckily I am good friends with Stone Brewing Co. because they age some of their excellent beers in used Whiskey Barrels. They are also my largest clients who order regularly. Be sure to check out their four amazing locations and try out our chairs. Stone Farms, Stone Liberty Station, Stone in Escondido & Oceanside.

The process can be a little time consuming while working with used barrels. Just prepping and sanding one barrel can be a few hours. It may seem very simple to make chairs, tables, love seats etc., but one thing everyone over looks is that not one barrel is exactly alike. Definitely took some practicing getting used to.

Stone Brewery Farm

Whiskey Barrel Chair by The Hungarian Workshop at Stone Brewing Co. FARMToday we had an amazing day! Me and my fiance had a chance to get a sneak peek at the new Stone Brewery Farm. The size of the place is enormous and the scenery was beautiful. Being away from the city was definitely a fun change and felt very relaxing.  The whole atmosphere reminded of a simpler time. Kind of like my childhood while I was growing up in Felsőzsolca, Hungary.

Couple of the farmers working, getting everything ready for the grand opening. Stone Brewery FarmAfter finishing the 10 Whiskey Barrel Chairs that Stone had ordered for the farm, I was pretty excited to make the delivery myself. I heard a lot of great things about Stone Farms beforehand, so when the opportunity come to visit the place I was thrilled. Stone Brewing Company is expending more and more everyday and I am very thankful to be working with them! They are one of my biggest clients who has fast forwarded my business in the right direction.

Whiskey Barrel Chair at Stone Farm | Hungarian WorkshopWhen we arrived we met the Farm Supervisor; David Solomon. He is a very nice guy who showed us around and introduced us to some of the other Stone Farmers. Seeing the amount of work that goes into running a whole entire farm has made me really appreciate the hard working man and women who make their living that way.

Chickens at Stone FarmThe Stone Brewery Farm will feature quit a few neat attractions as well. On our adventure walking around the farm we discovered their chickens, ducks and quails. One of Stone most popular dish is Quail “Knots” which is a delicious pickled quail egg. Once we visited all the animals we headed down to an open area that seems like perfect place to set the Whiskey Chairs and have few drinks. In the clearance was also a concrete pizza oven. I can’t wait for that to be up and running! A fresh slice and a cold beer away from the city and all the noise, count me in. Speaking of beer, I got the word that the Stone Brewery Farm will be featuring a new Lavender beer. Look for that in the near future. By the entrance of the farm there will be a bar area that has a deck with a great view of the entire place.
