Linen Fold Sideboard

About fifteen years ago I made a cabinet called “The Linenfold Cabinet” It was for a wonderful client who should really be the Godmother of my children, for her work over the years has put food in their mouths and clothes on their back . Diana has always over the past twenty years or so had a piece being made for her, but this is not about her . Tom and Ann one of my present clients saw the photo of her piece, saw the way it caught the light, side lit from a large glass window and asked if we could develop that idea. Their idea was sound for they too have a side lit situation to place a sideboard against. Their room is a great deal larger than Dianas, and they wanted me to echo another piece I had made for them on the other side of the room, a sort of brother sister design, slightly oriental, peaceful bags of repose They also liked a blond sideboard I had done in the 90s so I set off again.

All my pieces are unique in that they are never repeated at least not by me, they evolve I develop designs over the years as my clients take me here and there and my own low boredom threshold pushes me to doing new designs.
