Yes, it can be profitable making custom furniture for upscale clientele. I know someone who does it.

These folks don't care about cost but the result has to be outstanding and unique, one of a kind. They probably won't pay thousands of dollars for something that looks like it could have been bought at any furniture store.

It helps if you've got an artistic bent. Design is a big part of it. You'll need to give clients sketches of your proposals and massage their egos throughout the process. Hand holding and individual attention also seems to be a big part of it.

You'll need to show examples and photos of your work just to be considered.
