Scotch Cabinet of Yaka and Kwila
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Andrew WallaceThe design of Wallace’s yaka and kwila “Scotch Cabinet,” 13 in. deep by 17 in. wide by 34 in. tall, is subtle but elegant, with no extraneous decoration. Wallace also used elegantly simple construction. Although the legs taper toward the top, the inner dimensions are rectangular. He used the lines of the grain and the shape of the legs to create the sweep of the cabinet, avoiding the complicated construction of a tapered carcase. The finish is shellac.
