Olive Ash and Cedar of Lebanon Butler’s Chest

DANIEL GILL
Galway, Ireland
Gill’s butler’s chest was inspired by the furniture designs of Garrett Hack and by Christian Becksvoort’s “Desk in a Drawer” (FWW #243). “The piece contains over 200 hand-cut dovetails,” Gill says. “The construction is similar to that of the Shakers, with sliding dovetails, web frame, and moldings held with dovetailed keys to allow for seasonal movement.”
