Buffet in Tasmanian Blackwood
Here is the buffet in the client's home
This commission was designed to match an existing dinning room set. The set was designed by an architect and was his first furniture design. The client loved the square insets in the chairs and table and want this design feature introduced into the buffet. The final piece is built from Tasmanian Blackwood.
The finish is dye, shelac, varnish and wax.
The total time to completion was 4 months. The majority of time was refining the design. See the original sketch, the prototype and the finished product.

hi mark ... happy new year and nice piece ! i was going to write and ask where you got the blackwood and then i read your profile and see that you are in australia .. that explains it ... looks like beautiful wood ..
Dan, If you ever get a chance to work with blackwood or Jarrah, you will enjoy it. Both woods are hard like maple but with a beautiful reddish brown colour.
