This client wanted a desk that would fit
a specific place in her home and would
be elegant but simple in appearance.
Three drawers with no pulls or other
visible hardware.
Hard Maple and
Sapele were the chosen woods. There is
another feature of this desk known only
to the client.
This low-slung book rack was made from
Walnut. It was designed to store large
three-ring binders and sits behind a
large desk and chair. It stores the
binders at 45 degrees for easy access by
the chair occupant.
Made to fit
a confined space, the unit measures 35"
wide by 18" deep and 23" tall.
This large cabinet holds 11 drawers
whose interior dimensions are 48" wide,
34" deep and 2-1/2" high. It was
purposed to house or store vestments
(used by the priests of a Catholic
Church) that are too heavy for storing
on clothing hangers.
This customer, a local Encinitas area jewelry store, wanted to totally revamp his somewhat hodge-podge showcase cabinetry. He not only wanted the jewelry showcased comfortably for his customers but also have a sitting area for detailed viewing.
Walnut was chosen for this project for its rich warmth and charm.
The large flat file depicted here was requested by a professional photographer/artist. It is constructed from natural bamboo, flat grained. Each drawer is about 35" wide by 32" deep and 4" high. The drawer fronts are made from Zebra Wood (African Zebrano). Midway on the height is a pull out shelf used for viewing.
This desk
was made in 1981 and survived a very
busy household since that time. It
recently came back for re-hab. There was
nothing wrong with it except for needing
some surface cleaning and refinishing.
It has been remarkably solid and had no
loosened joints or other weaknesses.
This desk
was made from a somewhat whimsical
design. It was designed to be colorful
to the eye, graceful in appearance and
strongly unique.
It is 39” wide,
18” deep and 42” tall. It was
constructed using Maple, Bubinga and
Paduak. It has a leather writing surface
and hand carved Wenge trim.
The
desk was displayed in a gallery before
finding a home in San Diego.
At the request of the customer this desk
was designed based upon an early
American style. The customer had strong
ties to the Hawaiian Islands so the wood
used for its construction was Koa.
It has Ebony trim and inlay work
along with a leather writing surface.
