| All of my tables are custom made to specs based on the customer's prefrences. As with my boards, I prefer clean lines and classical porportions. One of my favorite designs is a result of stripping away the gaudy carving and ornamentation common to pre-victorian furniture, leaving only the basic lines of the classic cabriole leg and arched apron. | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Left: The "Chessdesk" in Honduras Mahogany, Ebony and Bird's Eye Maple. This was made for an attorney's office. It features ball and claw feet. The aprons are "shadowboxed" with "egg and dart" mouldings and the two lockable drawers are lined with billiard cloth. Because this piece had to actually function as a desk from time to time, the squares and border were inlaid flush rather than "standing proud". Price was $6,600.00 | ||||||||||||||||||||
