“Whether it's a modern solid walnut chair, a timeless coffee table adorned with intricate veneer patterns or a block of wood transformed into a unique vessel, I strive to create pieces that are both aesthetically pleasing and where appropriate, functionally useable.”
Understanding the materials
Solid Wood is the backbone of high-quality furniture. It provides strength, durability, and natural beauty that can be enhanced through its distinctive ability to be shaped, formed, cut, and sanded. Solid wood is prized for its structural integrity and unique grain patterns.
Veneers are thin slices of wood often applied over a base of solid wood or other materials. They allow artisans to showcase exotic or intricate wood patterns without using large quantities of rare or expensive wood. They can also be used to create complex designs, images, or specific details.
