Greene And Greene Bookcase
This Greene and Greene Bookcase was designed to compliment my Greene and Greene Desk. This piece is shown in Cherry and Ebony inlay with a hand rubbed oil finish. Greene and Greene is a distinctive style popular in the Arts and Crafts movement. Curves in the wood top are cut in the "cloud lift " style and "dancing peg joinery", which are the key elements that I display in this piece. This piece is available now as see in Cherry and Ebony. This piece, along with many of my other pieces, can be built in different wood species to suit your needs. My Greene and Greene Desk is featured the 2012 summer issue of Arts and Craft Homes and The Revival art and craft section! Brian Brace Fine Furniture Black Mountain, NC

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
Originating from a small town in the green mountains of Vermont, I began a fine woodworking apprenticeship under a local master furniture maker while still in high school. Upon completing the required 8000 hour apprenticeship program, I became the first to achieve Vermont State certification.
My 5 year journeymanship followed, beginning in Vermont and extending to Naples, FL.
Finally, in 2004, my dream of being a Master came true when I opened my first shop in Naples, FL. While having my shop in Naples, I did work for customers such as Truly Nolan, Olga Hirshhorn ( from the Hirshhorn garden at the Smithsonian) and the Lutgert family along with many others. I also was on the Naples museum of art open studio tour in 2010. One of only six artists in all of Naples.
In July of 2010, I expanded that dream by relocating back to the forests, this time, in the Western North Carolina town of Black Mountain, just a few miles east of Asheville.
I already have over 17 years of experience in custom furniture making at the age of 35, and that is why all of my pieces show the commitment and dedication I display to the craft. Many of the pieces I have made can be viewed on my website with detail images. Also, I can custom make pieces that you may have in mind, or we can design together to suit your needs.
