About C.B. Starling

Hello!

Hi there—I’m Conor Behrle, woodworker and founder of C.B. Starling, a luxury furniture studio rooted in craftsmanship. From Baltimore to Los Angeles, I’ve honed my craft with renowned makers before launching my own line of furniture. My work draws from vintage, art deco, and rock ’n’ roll aesthetics, built to honor tradition while pushing design forward.

Each piece is handmade with precision and intention, designed to carry stories for generations. Using only premium materials and time-honored methods, so that I can deliver pieces that feel personal, enduring, and distinct. I believe great furniture should spark connection—between craft and client, form and function, past and present. Currently open for bespoke projects and commissions.
