The carved embellishments found on eighteenth-century American
furniture pieces are what make them memorable works of art. This
book directs the serious student through nine authentic elements
from the colonial period. Each chapter is devoted to one element
and provides pattern drawings, detailed instructions, and abundant
photographs of every step. Learn how to execute the entire process
from sculpting the surface to layout, roughing in the shapes and
levels, and finally carving the details. The selected projects are
chosen from historically important eighteenth-century furniture and
adorned some of the best pieces ever made. Although the book
tackles advanced topics, the instruction is logical and complete so
that the serious reader, independent of skill, can successfully
work through the steps.
