This book was released on 2000 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic designs, beautiful crafting, and fine details: traditional furniture making has them all. A fifth-generation cabinetmaker and restorer shows how today''s woodworkers can create timeless pieces while exploiting modern techniques and equipment, as well as those used since the 18th century. This proven blend of past and present approaches to producing period furniture, including constructing dovetailed drawers and hand veneering, reaches its apex in five highly detailed projects, each exhaustively illustrated with plans, explanatory drawings, and color photographs. Fashion an oak mule chest with broken-arch paneled doors, using a biscuit joiner; a tapered-leg dressing table; a sofa table, which demands calculating rule and finger joints; an extending table with telescopic runners and a platform stretcher; and a breakfast bookcase.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johannes Heuvel's 'The Cabinetmaker in Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg' is a meticulously researched and richly detailed exploration of the life and work of cabinetmakers in the bustling colonial town of Williamsburg. Through a combination of archival research and close analysis of surviving pieces, Heuvel paints a vivid picture of the social, economic, and cultural factors that influenced the craftsmanship and design of furniture in this period. The book is written in a clear and engaging style, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers interested in early American material culture. Heuvel's attention to detail and contextual understanding provide a valuable contribution to the study of colonial craftsmanship and the development of American identity. Johannes Heuvel, a renowned expert in early American furniture, brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to his study of cabinetmakers in Williamsburg. His background as a furniture maker himself gives him a unique perspective on the craft and allows him to offer insightful analysis of the techniques and artistry of the period. Heuvel's expertise shines through in his thorough examination of the social and economic factors that shaped the work of cabinetmakers in colonial America, making 'The Cabinetmaker in Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg' a must-read for anyone interested in the history of furniture making. I highly recommend this book to scholars, students, and enthusiasts of early American craftsmanship.

Download or read book Furniture-Makers and Consumers in England, 1754–1851 written by Akiko Shimbo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering the period from the publication of Thomas Chippendale's The Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers' Director (1754) to the Great Exhibition (1851), this book analyses the relationships between producer retailers and consumers of furniture and interior design, and explores what effect dialogues surrounding these transactions had on the standardisation of furniture production during this period. This was an era, before mass production, when domestic furniture was made both to order and from standard patterns and negotiations between producers and consumers formed a crucial part of the design and production process. This study narrows in on three main areas of this process: the role of pattern books and their readers; the construction of taste and style through negotiation; and daily interactions through showrooms and other services, to reveal the complexities of English material culture in a period of industrialisation.
