Patterned after the Model 562 Taboret from the 1914 catalog. The table is made entirely from quarter-sawn red oak using traditional mortise and tenon peg joinery. The ray flake resulting from the quarter sawn process provides a beautiful graining appearance to the top and sides. Significant time and attention is devoted to the finish in order to replicate the beauty of the traditional Arts & Crafts furniture of the time. After extensive hand sanding, a red/brown aniline dye followed by an oil base walnut colored stain is applied. A shellac seal coat is then applied with another thorough sanding. Finally 3 coats of satin urethane are applied with a 0000 steel wool rub out between coats. Dimensions: 20" x 20" square top 22" tall

Arts and Crafts Furniture….Handcrafted Custom Pieces
I am a retired engineer and marketer and now do what I enjoy most. I operate a small, independent, home shop in Northeast Ohio, where I construct handmade Arts and Crafts furniture from local timber sources in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan.
By demand, I have also expanded into "modern" metal and wood benches, as well as "live edge" pieces.
Like my furniture, these are handcrafted using steel and hardwoods. Although originally conceived for outdoor application, many are destined for interior furnishing only.
Please understand that the furniture I build is destined for my house, or yours, and so I rarely "stock" an item. Yours will be built with the utmost care and craftsmanship.
Custom requests are encouraged
