Seascape
Cuban mahogany veneer, bubinga, pear, pear veneer, cedar of Lebanon, tineo veneer, nickel silver
Living near the sea, I am fascinated by tide pools and the microcosms of life they hold. Inspired by the ribboned, seaweed-like grain of the mahogany, I engraved a scene from one of these pools: periwinkles among the rockweed, a beautiful and common sight on the New England coast. Curved Cuban mahogany doors open to reveal a concave row of three suspended interior drawers, each graced with an engraved nickel silver pull.
