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.
Build one of the most iconic and elegant forms in American
furniture history. Expert furniture crafter Kubalak teaches how to
craft a reproduction of one of the most highly embellished and

breaking it into several subprojects, then combining them into the

pattern drawings, exploded views, detailed instructions, and
abundant photographs of every step. Additional chapters focus on
case construction, subassemblies, and finishing. Although this is
an advanced project, the instruction is logical and complete so
that the serious reader, independent of skill, can successfully
work through the steps. Full-size project plans are included. Build
your own version that will be a family heirloom for generations.
