Quantity:
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, Lara Reisigl Domeneghetti reconstructs a 12th-century Norwegian ecclesiastical chair known as the Tylldal Chair. Sharing her extensive research on the chair’s intricate carvings, she reveals how a blend of pagan and Christian symbols reflects transitions in the cultural, spiritual and craft practices of medieval Europe.
Boatbuilder Douglas Brooks travels to Japan to document the few remaining masters of kioke – massive wooden barrels used for soy-sauce brewing – exploring the joinery and handicraft behind one of Japan’s centuries-old woodworking traditions. The magazine’s editor, Joshua A. Klein, discusses the practical and aesthetic factors to consider when designing and constructing built-in bookshelves, and Michael Updegraff guides readers through the process of making a traditional greenwood shrink pot with simple hand tools.
Other articles include an interview with antiquarian Chris Havey, an in-depth look at an early 19th-century Federal card table, Patrick Moore’s insights into the art and science of stereotomy, and Andrew D. Glenn’s review of Mike Dunbar’s book, Make a Windsor Chair.
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.
