Brian did a remarkable job. Generally when I have work done I'm disappointed. I'm extremely picky and I find little things half done. Brian is literally the only person who has ever done work for me with whom I've been entirely satisfied. I asked for a table he often makes, but with several modifications. He would go over those with me painstakingly. When I wanted to change the drawer handle, he mocked up different versions and photographed them on the piece so I could see how they looked. Since I wanted birdeye maple, and the look of the piece would be very dependent on the degree of figuring, he selected boards and sent photos to me so that I could OK them before he continued. He also photographed the construction for me every step of the way so I could give my wife a little slideshow (it was a present- I'm happy to email the powerpoint if you like-> toczyski@cc.ucsf.edu). Even the crate he constructed to ship it in was well-built, sturdier and better constructed than a lot of furniture I've seen. Finally, when I asked what finish he used, in case I ever needed to re-oil it, he offered to just ship me some of it.
Greene and Greene is a distinctive style popular in the Arts and Crafts movement. This desk displays key elements of the style such as: curves in the wood top cut in the "cloud lift " style and "dancing peg joinery". This particular Greene and Greene Desk is constructed out of Cherry and Ebony.
As a furniture maker, this is a style that challenges your skills and show his or her excellence.
This piece, along with many of my pieces can be built in different wood species to suit your needs.
My Greene and Greene Desk is featured the 2012 summer issue of Arts and Craft Homes and The Revival art and craft section!
