Woodworker: Ed StuckeyStuckey, a member of the Society of American Period Furniture Makers, built this Federal-style card table with inspiration from an article by Walter Raynes and Carl Clinton in Home Furniture #6 (Spring 1996). Rather than make an exact reproduction, the authors merged New York and Baltimore styles: While the oak-leaf and acorn inlays, the round top with sunburst crotch mahogany panels, and the dentil inlay are distinctly New York, the bellflowers on the legs are more consistent with the tables built in Baltimore. When open, the table is 36 in. dia. and stands 28 in. tall. Finished with a French polish, the woods are mahogany, satinwood, Brazilian rosewood, ebony, curly maple, walnut, and holly.
