This clearly written how-to book by a master craftsman allows woodworkers to construct 30 different beautiful and richly designed pieces of useful furniture -- all replicas of actual rare furnishings. All can be completed by ambitious beginners as well as skilled craftspeople for only a fraction of what vintage originals would cost.Step-by-step instructions, isometric drawings, and photographs, as well as top, front, and end views help create such distinctive pieces as a Dutch cupboard, four-poster bed, Sheraton desk, Chippendale chair, Spanish desk, Queen Anne table, and a William and Mary dressing mirror. 138 b/w illus.
