Tambour-Door Sideboard

By FWW_Gallery, member Oct 24, 2012

Woodworker: Chris Rand

At 50, Rand decided to begin a new career as a custom-furniture maker and enrolled in the Furniture Design and Craftsmanship program at Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College (now Bucks New University). He built this tambour-door sideboard during his second and third years there. Inspiration came from the Arts and Crafts movement and the writings of James Krenov. The woods are chestnut, brown oak, and cedar of Lebanon, and the finish is Danish oil and wax.
