All of us at The Ernest Thompson Company take great pride in our New Mexico heritage and all it represents, and we are inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds us. We also take pride in continuing a woodworking heritage that trace back to the early 1600's, and serve as stewards of age-old techniques and practices that help distinguish our work from all others.
Every Ernest Thompson team member is dedicated to providing our customers with unsurpassed service and incomparable quality. We're proud of each one, and are confident that you will find them to be exceptional in every respect. After careers on Wall Street, Mike and his wife Doreen picked up stakes and moved to New Mexico in 1990, where they made a dramatic lifestyle change and purchased Ernest Thompson.
Your furniture begins with infinite possibilities in the hands of true artisans, and through their labor of love. When it comes to style, the world is at your feet. You can be as traditional or as inventive as you choose to be. Our four lines of furniture featured below offer a creative starting point, but that's only the beginning of where you can go in the hands of our expert designers and craftsmen.
Sometimes a piece of furniture can be the perfect finishing touch to a room which is currently lacking. A sofa table, hand carved console, or a solid wood banco ( or "bench, " for our friends outside the Rio Grande valley) is the prefect finishing touch to an entryway. Ernest Thompson accent pieces are designed to add beautiful wood accents and increased display or storage space to your home or office.

We have yet to see the finished work as they have missed the deadline they promised by over a month! The process has been disorganized and they are bad at communication through the design process and progress. I am hoping that the finished product will make up for the poor experience we have had so far.

We ordered four Sombraje turtle backed chairs to match walls in our home. Ernest Thompson used our paint samples and matched the twigs perfectly. Emily was a delight to work with - helping me pick fabric, chair height width, etc. The entire experience could not have been better. We have ordered from them many years ago, and are glad to see that quality custom work continues to have a place in the Albuquerque market. Thanks so very much.

Working with the staff at Ernest Thompson Furniture has been nothing short of a wonderful experience! From the friendly and knowledgeable help we received from Emily, the showroom manager, to the professional and friendly delivery service from Luis and Gabriel. The staff take pride in the furniture and the work. and well they should! The craftsmanship in the furniture is bar none and is of outstanding quality. They are unique pieces and showcase Spanish and local styles nicely. Anyone purchasing furniture from Ernest Thompson Furniture will be proud to showcase it in their home!
