Chest on Chest
Woodworker: Dan FaiaCommissioned to build a block-front chest-on-chest, Faia worked with his client to find the right piece to reproduce. They settled on this one for its unique design and dimensions. The original was made in the late 1700s for the sea merchant John Brown. Finished with blond and garnet shellac and paste wax, the mahogany and pine chest stands 21-3/4 in. deep by 41-1/2 in. wide by 86-3/4 in. tall. Photo: Micah Gummel
