William and Mary-style Settee
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Daniel W. Santos
A pair of clients turned to Santos for help after a fruitless search for a foyer bench to match the antiques that fill their home. They requested a functional piece with a painted finish to compliment their collection. Santos designed the turnings himself after an extensive review of William-and-Mary-era pieces. The base is hard maple finished with aniline dye followed by alternating layers of green, red, and black milk paint, plus shellac, and wax.
