Black Bear Pair
A bench carved as a pair of black bears. This is one of several benches carved as animal pairs, arranged in a loveseat configuration. They are ruggedly built using a combination of stack lamination and furniture joinery. Some people use them a coffee table in front of a couch, and sometimes with a glass top. In any case they are a fun item in any environment, making life a bit more enjoyable. A commission for this bench, or one with animals of your desire is $4000 plus shipping. A "step by step" on how this bench was made is in the Summer 2008 edition of Woodcarver's Illustrated magazine
