My client's Victorian home inspired her to do her dining room in the Reformed Gothic Style of the late Victorian Gothic Revival. Our collaboration resulted in many pieces of furniture: dining room table, two arm chairs, ten side chairs, sideboard, and this china cabinet. In this piece are found features typical of the set: Marquetry frieze work, gothic tracery, gothic arches, chip carving as found in late Victorian woodwork, and a hint of flying buttresses. The wood is walnut and is finished with a hand rubbed oil finish and wiped glaze to suggest age.

I seek to make elegant furniture featuring charming marquetry and time-honored craftsmanship. I design and build for clients to suit their practical needs and aesthetic tastes. I have been a woodworker for over 30 years and a furniture maker for over 20. My training was formal and in traditional design and construction of 18th and 19th century styles. I continue to work in those periods but am also pleased to accommodate more contemporary looks. Please visit my website to see my entire portfolio.
