Eighteenth Century New Hampshire Style Dresser
Handmade in Belfast, Maine by Lincoln Clapp Handmade
This dresser is patterned after one that my father had. The original was built in the late 1700's, probably in southern New Hampshire. I added a raised top rail to keep things from rolling off the top and on to the floor. I also changed the base a bit to fit my taste. This dresser is made of solid cherry with brass pulls made in England.

About Me:
After spending a decade in NYC as an audio engineer recording such talents as Stevie Ray Vaughn and Whitney Houston I decided to pursue a life-long love of woodworking by moving to Maine and building traditional furniture. My love of music evolved into offering a line of electric guitars called 'LincSonic'. I am currently the senior furniture builder for Windsorchair as well as an independent, custom electric guitar designer and builder.
About My Work:
I have been woodworking for about forty years. My work reflects my appreciation of traditional furniture design; from Queen Anne to Arts and Crafts to Shaker. One of my drop-front desks was featured on the cover of Fine Woodworking, (December 1992, #97). Over the years I have built over 3000 pieces of furniture.
My LincSonic guitars reflect my love of music and my satisfaction in designing and building a fine musical instrument.
