[Tiger Maple Breakfront]

This design is part of an Art Nouveau dining room suite, and is rooted in several earlier sketches that I had made for other commissions. It was adapted and refined for a particular setting in the room, and reflects the scale, materials, and curving lines of other matching pieces in the large, open concept living-dining space.

The cornice and base molding, drawer and cabinet handles, and corner brackets are all hand-carved from solid wood. This and other pieces in the suite are built from carefully selected and cut curly maple, with contrasting black walnut handles and solid brass hardware.
