 Inspired by the classical Rococo style, this beautiful Hall table was made by combining various pieces built and carved from a 17 bft hard maple board. The three dimensional look of the top center was made by inlaying ¼” pieces from the same board. The inlay parallel to the edges was made from crosscut maple pieces, while the diagonal net was made using a plain cut. The exquisite detail on the edges and corners was added using most of the remaining pieces. In fact, almost the entire board was used, except for a few small pieces. The lack of material to work with inspired the artist to use all the spare parts to make the work truly superb and unique. The apron is carved with a shell surrounded by a flowing curtain. The curtain is so realistic that it seems to by floating in the wind. The legs are carved with an intricate spiral, topped with a linen fold as lifelike as the curtains.

Finish : Dye stain, acrylic  lacquer.

You are trying too hard, and frankly there is nothing more annoying than a craftman or "artist" talking about himself or his work in the third person. It just smacks of arrogance, and in the end it makes the sales pitch stick on your client's mind instead of your piece. If your work is of high quality, let it speak for itself.
