Baker Road had its beginning twenty-three years
ago in the small town of North Chicago, Illinois. It took its
name from an actual road in neighboring Lake Bluff. The first
hand-made products were antique reproductions of wall clocks.
Baker Road moved from North Chicago to Elgin, Illinois in 1977.
They discontinued making clocks, and turned all their efforts
to making fine oak furniture, hand-crafted to perfection.
From a modest beginning of a father and son team, Baker Road
now employs fifty people. Their first year sales of $50,000, grew
to the million-dollar corporation that it is today.
