Shaker-style Linen Press
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Peter Turner
Originally linen presses were used for storing clothing or valuable linen. In this modern adaptation, the form was pressed into service as a dining-room hutch. Turner’s piece was made with glass shelves rather than wood to keep them unobtrusive. The clients outfitted one of the drawers with a removable silver tray for ease of service. The cherry hutch has maple drawers and wedged-and-tenoned pulls of granadillo from Mexico.
