This biannual publication celebrates the preservation, research and restoration of historic furniture. Its multi-disciplinary approach brings together the perspectives of furniture makers, conservators and scholars to span woodworking past and present, with focus on pre-industrial tools and methods.
In this issue, Brendan Gaffney examines Appalachian chairmaker Chester Cornett’s remarkable bookcase rocking chair. Kate Fox investigates the intriguing six-board construction of ancient Norse sea chests, some of which have survived for centuries. A compelling article by Joshua Klein and Michael Updegraff encourages woodworkers to share their passion for their craft with children. In a separate article, Klein shares insights he gained through researching the work of 19th century craftsman Jonathan Fisher. There is also an interview with Spencer Nelson on woodworking in small spaces, and a photo essay examining an 18th century tea table that reveals the skills of the period craftsman. Additional contributors include Marshall Scheetz, Derek Olson, Megan Fitzpatrick and Kim Choy.
More like a book than a typical magazine, it is printed on heavy stock paper and richly illustrated with color photos. Sold as a single issue, not a subscription.
