NEW WORK, PROTOTYPES, AND ONE OF A KIND


 
Round Candleholders

Round Candleholders
(2-1/2 H x 2-1/2 - 4 W)
These turned candleholders are made of cherry, maple, walnut or whatever I have at hand that is of interest. Sizes and shapes vary from round to oval, onion or squash shaped, with a hint of figure to bark inclusions, dark streaks, burls or swirling grain. I just stumbled across a great figured maple plank, and have a few cherry burls left. Drip cups are stainless steel.
$100. each

Reflector Sconce
(18H x 7 W x 9D)
For years I've wanted to make a contemporary reflector sconce. This one features a bentwood cherry arm, brushed stainless steel reflector and drip cup.
$375.

Reflector Sconce

Cherry Wall Sconce
(22H x 5-1/2W x 7D)
This Scandinavian design was one of my earliest designs, dating back to 1972. It has a long tapered and rounded cherry back with a dovetailed arm holding a 5" brushed stainless steel dish, and ideal size for a 3" beeswax candle. After 3 1/2 decades, it's still a very elegant piece.
$500.

Tea Lights
(3 H x 5-5/8W x 5-5/8D)
Tea lights add ambiance to any table. This centerpiece is based on 1 7/8" blocks of varying heights, each drilled for standard tea lights. $225. Also available as a 3 light unit ($75.), or a five light unit ($125.)

Wall Shelf Unit

Wall Shelf Unit
(15 H x 46 W x 8 3/4 D)
A small wall-mounted shelf (attaches to studs at 32"). Perfect for the hallway, next to your bed, or easy chair. For books, clock radio, glasses, jewelry or art objects. With two individually hung drawers featuring small beach stone drawer pulls.
$1,900.


Desk Set

Desk Set

Shaker Lap Desk

Shaker Lap Desk
(5H x 20W x 12 3/4 D)
A small travel, or lap desk, designed for stationery, envelopes, pens, and if you're so inclined, an ink bottle in the small drawer. The best part is, that if you remove the center divider, you can use the desk to store your lap-top computer, up to 14" wide. Considering that this desk was designed in the very early 1800's, it is still amazingly versatile.
$2,100. in pine, as shown
$2,200. in cherry

Table Lamp and Turned Shade
(Base: 10H x 5 1/2W x 5 1/2D) (Shade: 9H x 9W x 9D)
The carved cherry base has been in my catalog for some time. Purchased separately, it will take the shade of your choice. Now, a friend of mine has begun turning lamp shades out of logs: birch, poplar and red maple. The result is a pleasing, warm light, even when using compact fluorescent bulbs.
Shade $800., carved cherry base $900.

Wall Cabinets (right)
(21 H x 13 W x 9 D)
A variety of door panel options give this wall cabinet entirely different character. Choose from hand carved panel, routed lattice, sand-blasted glass, or crotch/figured panels. Cabinets can be made in sizes to suit your specific needs, and custom glass panels can be ordered with any of my other cabinets in the catalog. Feel free to inquire, since every piece is built to order.

$2,600. with one drawer and one adjustable shelf.
Add $300. for glass panel.
 
 

Personalized Plaque
10H x 8W x 3/4D
When a friend asked for a wooden Valentine, and told me to use my imagination, this is what I came up with. Black walnut background, Versal lettering, carved, gilded, bas-relief heart, and a rock maple frame. Instead of a heart, picture a different object that holds special meaning, your monogram, or date for an anniversary, graduation, birthday, or other special occasion. Use your imagination.
Starting at $575
Shaker Trestle Table
30H x 96W x 36D
This is my favorite Shaker table. Elegant in its simplicity, the high arched feet and turned posts lend it both grace and stability. Seats eight. Other sizes on request.
$4,400

Sideboard With Doors and Drawers
38H x 76W x 24D
Another Shaker inspired piece. This functions as the perfect sideboard or work counter, in the kitchen or dining room. Stores dishes, glassware, linens and silverware. Layout and dimensions can be altered to suit.
$12,750

Angel Gabriel Weather vane
34H x 75W
Carved of white pine , painted with two coats of exterior cobalt yellow enamel and finally gilded in 23K gold. A truly stunning weather vane, over six feet long from tip of trumpet to the toes. It would look great on a church steeple, large home or barn with a cupola. Or use it as a piece of folk art mounted on a large white wall.
 
The original (same size, but made of flat sheet copper) is an early nineteenth century vane from Newburyport, Massachusetts. $ 7,500
