Chest Of Drawers

Chest Of Drawers

$2,200

These sculptures, are part of a series of three that display my fondness of the barn frame construction, (post & beam) with a functional wood chest of drawers. I used naturally beautiful contrasting woods and colors, with functional and decorative wood joinery for the frame and chest. The posts and beams are maple. I used mahogany and oak, for the chests and rosewood for the accents. The handles are hand shaped. The frame, with mortise & tenon joinery, is cantilevered, and supports the wood chest of drawers, that are functional. They are a show piece of what I love about wood, furniture, architecture and design. A few words about Furniture Furniture can be a fun, creative and a functional expression of your life style. There are 'simply', NO LIMITS as what can be designed and built. We enjoy mixed media projects and have had experience in many materials, including natural stone, metals, leather, solid surface, plastic laminate, and glass, (etched, stained and beveled). Whether the piece you want is traditional, contemporary, eclectic or artistic, as you've seen, we can built it! For additional information & photographs of this project and others, please visit my website. Our custom cabinet & furniture shop is unique, with uncommonly, highly skilled craftsman. Since 1972, I've designed & built custom cabinets, furniture and interior millwork of all styles. Our shop offers traditional & contemporary woodworking machines and the skills, to build most any project.

Welcome to my Site . . .

I'm a skilled Craftsman, Designer, Artist, who specializes in fine cabinetry, furniture and Artwork. I seek individuality in design for my customers.

Since 1970, I’ve designed & built custom cabinets, furniture in PA, NJ, and NY.

Each project is designed for you, using my many years of experience. I can also work with your architect, designer or builder, using your designs.

My projects range from ‘Classic Traditional’ to ‘Contemporary’ in design, including ‘Crafts Style’, with its artistic exposed joinery. As you will see in my online portfolio.

I use a wide range of quality and interesting materials. From unique solid woods in the form of flitches, (natural edge boards that can be 36’’ wide, 14 ft long and 3’’ thick) to specific highly selected exotic veneers and grain patterns.

Over forty years of experience has tempered and honed my skills…. along with the ability to understand the needs of my clients and communicate my ideas.

My projects have been published in, House Beautiful Sept 1986, House Beautiful Home Remodeling and Renovations, Spring 1988, Better Homes and Gardens, Better by Design, April 1999. And most recently Fine Woodworking.

I'd like to mention my invention and subsequent US patent award, for the “EuroButt II System Hinge”. Which allows the cabinetmakers that use or want to use the concealed hinge the option to give the traditional design element of the traditional ball tip hinge barrel to the European concealed hinge.

I hope you enjoy your visit at my ‘Show Room’.
