Capital Base Table.

This capital base table is like my personal phoenix. I have done it up numerous ways over the past 3 years with many different tops in many different mediums and sizes...........this incarnation is the end of the line. 58" round heart pine top having what is essentially a faux concrete finish that is very flat, will hide dirt and stains well. Table will easily accommodate 8 chairs.

Va. Chest (1820's)

This Virginia chest of drawers circa 1825, of walnut, yellow pine & poplar, is just a dream. Clean chest, never refinished, just nice additive finish which has naturally produced a wondrous patina.

More pics on the way on this piece. Ciao

Some pointed advice.....

Lots of my friends give me tons and tons of advice. Never-ending in fact.
