Raymond "Bud" Overholzer's phantasmic 20th century rustic furniture in Michigan. The Shrine of the Pines

Raymond “Bud” Overholzer created the Shrine of the Pines near Baldwin. A phantasmic furniture collection of pine! Bud was intrigued by misshapen pieces of pine so plentiful near his Michigan property he turned it into the epitome of rustic, eccentric furniture and nicknames. He worked on the collection from 1920 to 1950. It’s all joined by dowels! No nails.All early 20th century furniture should be so well balanced. One of the more intriguing facts is that he invented his own sandpaper out of ground glass. The Shrine is still open!
