Step Tansu in Cherry and Maple
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Matthew Stark
Stark began woodworking at age 17, and 12 years later considers this Japanese step tansu to be a highlight of his career so far. Although he has built similar pieces while working for high-end furniture makers in large state-of-the-art shops, he made this piece on commission in his own small shop. The tansu is built from cherry and quilted maple and finished with wipe-on polyurethane and wax. The hand-forged pulls and handles are from Misugi Designs.
