Colonial Sofa

Neo Empire Dining Table

This piece was born from the legs which came to me like in a vision. With the help of our master carpenter I started drawing until we got a tapered, rounded, sexy leg. Then we proportioned the ring which was to interface the leg to the table�s skirt. Stepping back to examine our work we discovered a bold, strong leg asking for attention. So we decided to give it room to show off by making a table large enough for 10 persons. When completed, we had a well proportioned table anchored by the legs fit for a the castle�s emperor. Construction Notes: We start with four pieces one inch thick by thirteen inch wide by nine feet long. For this table we get the wood before gets to the saw mill. The legs are hand lathed and the finish is hand rubbed producing the sensuous, baby�s cheek finish. Dimensions: 90 ½ inches long by 48 inches wide and by 30 inches high

Parenthesis Dining Room Set

Because we love the 45 degree joint when we first started thinking of a new table, the Parsons concept came to mind, but that has ben done. So we started with a blank and one goal: the legs would dominate and contain the table. Our final legs were both straight and angular outside and rounded inside. The unique internal carving gives the legs a slick, thought out look. Like with all our tables the top is done in mahogany so the grain is rich. The curvy chairs establish a contrast with the restrained table. The backs of the chairs seem slightly tilted against the straight lines of the table, their back is designed with two different faces, their backs are not mirror images of their front. The skirt and legs of the chairs suggest a parentheses which gave the name to the set.

Roses Buffet Console

The roses in this piece were designed as a sculpture to be applied on the �canvas� formed by the front of the console built to accompany our roses table. The treatment of the console roses is different from the those in the table making the two pieces a coherent set of distinctly asymmetrical components; different flower shapes, branches, roots and stages of bloom. Initially we wanted the front of the console in glass so as to be looking into a window thru a rose bush. But the art of the hand forged piece was so good its reflection in the glass was a distraction, making the piece busy. So we ended with our original design intention of making the console the canvas of the sculptured rose tree.

Santo Domingo Dining Table

This piece was inspired by a memorable combination of materials in the foyer table at the a bar of the Santo Domingo Hotel in Antigua Guatemala, a Colonial convent restored to perfection. Like the inspiration our table combines a wood top and a metal base. Our rendition reflects the colonial inspiration with curled endings both on the top and the bottom of its sturdy metal legs and a round, six person, hand rubbed mahogany top. At the same time having removed all unfunctional decorations � the bottom curl makes the table sure footed while the top curl is the stability lock for ring supporting the table�s top � the table is a modern artwork. And even more so with a glass top also. Dimensions: 68" x 29 1/2"

Centaur Tabouret

A domesticated mythical centaur for your den. This sturdy accent piece begs the question, �do I ride it or put it under glass too keep it from running away�?..

The placement of the Centaur in your livingroom, the vanity in your bathroom or bedroom will proclaim your self confidence. Design Notes: Pablo Picasso is one of our heros. The moment we first saw his Minotaur drawings, the inspiration of this piece, is still fresh in our memory. Like the source of Picasso�s creation, our Centaur elicits passionate reactions. Some love it, some are in awe and others react with fear. Achieving a piece capable of evoking such strong and conflicting emotions is a designer's dream.
