My furniture is traditional arts and crafts style with mortise and tenon joinery, beautifully grained wood and relief carvings, all with a strong emphasis on hand-work.

Furniture is my passion but I also construct custom built-ins, bookcases and cabinetry, as well as lathe turned bowls and accessories.

For the finish I used a stain that I liked with many, many hand rub coats of Danish oil and tru oil, and finally buffed with wax to repel water.  Here is the photo documentary...
