Pearwood Mirrors
Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006This mirror is made with Swiss Pear, a dense, fine-grained wood (and one of my personal favorites to work), and is constructed with wedged, tenoned miters. The opposing sides of the mirror are resawn to accentuate the dark streaks running through the otherwise pinkish grain. The mirror shown is a full-length, wall-hung version. As with all my work, each mirror is made to order, and can therefore be made to any size to fit your particular setting.
Dimensions: 67″ T x 20″ W x 1.5″ D (Shown)
Materials: Swiss Pear with Sterling Silver
Finish: Carnauba Wax

Bathtub Grate in Ipe
Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006This grate is actually a series of interconnected, wooden I-Beams which hang from the lip of the tub, creating a flush surface to stand on while showering. The grate can be removed from the tub and stacked easily for bathing. The combination of Ipe (pronounced EE-pey), a dense tropical wood often used as a teak substitute, and Spar Varnish, which is commonly used to finish boat decks, make this a very strong and very durable piece.
Dimensions: 32″ W x 4″ D x 62″ L (15.5″ / section)
Materials: Ipe
Finish: Four coats of Marine-Grade Spar Varnish
Price: Private Commission
