How-To
Building in the Language of Greene and Greene
Their furniture's deftness is in the details
The little details are what make Greene and Greene furniture really stand out. Here, Thomas Hugh Stangeland explains how the Greene brothers arrived at their system of detailing, and he shares how he made square pegs, curved brackets, exposed splines, sideboard breadboards, pulls, and finishes for a Greene and Greene-style sideboard. Side information talks how this sideboard differs from the other Greene-and-Greene-style furniture he’s made.
