Medieval & Renaissance Furniture

Offert en anglais seulement

Project plans for reproduction medieval and Renaissance furniture are hard to find. The authors’ painstaking research for this book sets it apart from others on the subject. With their guidance, you can make accurate reproductions of centuries-old furniture such as an English trestle table, a Jacobean bookcase, a Welsh dresser and a panelled coffer.

The 36 project plans draw upon careful study of the originals, and include precise measurements, thorough instructions, materials lists, black-and-white photographs and scaled drawings. As well as construction details and information on the historical significance of each piece, there are helpful notes on woodworking, woodcarving, finishes, metalworking and locks.Softcover, 8 1/2" × 11", 328 pages, 2012.
