C. H. Becksvoort of New Gloucester, Maine. It’s a name synonymous with high-quality Shaker-style furniture. Chris Becksvoort uses the same simplicity of design when making music stands (a little-known line of his). “[They] give pleasure, and I think a lot of musicians do appreciate that, whereas the metal folding ones merely hold the music,” Chris says. Each of his six styles is made of cherry; five of them are adjustable to between 43 and 58 inches in overall height (or can be made to a specified height). $1,100-$3,000. 207-926-4608. chbecksvoort.com
