HOW IT STARTED

The Excitement of Fire...

Growing up in a rural area of California David Cooke was allowed to experiment with fire and ultimately learned to control it. Taking this passion to its fullest David earned a mechanical engineering degree and Cooke Furniture was born, focusing on innovation and expansion of fire pits, fire tables and unique fire features.  As a Mechanical Engineer David was trained in using CAD software, fabrication machines, welding and techniques used in the off-road auto industry.  These skills enabled David to get creative with his knowledge base and create stylish patio furniture and patio decor fixtures, most of which revolve around his early passion: fire.

David’s passion for contemporary style and top quality materials shines through in all of his designs.  In order to deliver the highest quality product and design flexibility, David sells his products direct to designers, builders, contractors and discerning homeowners rather than utilizing retail outlets.  This business strategy enables David to offer his superior products at competitive prices, while keeping all design and manufacturing of Cooke Furniture fire products in the USA.
