520 "The carved embellishments found on eighteenth-century
American furniture pieces are what make them memorable
works of art. This book directs the serious student
through nine authentic elements from the colonial period.
Each chapter is devoted to one element and provides
pattern drawings, detailed instructions, and abundant
photographs of every step. Learn how to execute the entire
process from sculpting the surface to layout, roughing in
the shapes and levels, and finally carving the details.
The selected projects are chosen from historically
important eighteenth-century furniture and adorned some of
the best pieces ever made. Although the book tackles
advanced topics, the instruction is logical and complete
so that the serious reader, independent of skill, can
successfully work through the steps."--Amazon.com
