Want to make an exact replica of a 16th-century carved table? An armchair in carved oak? How about a 17th century chest or an Italian cassone or coffer? This book combines precise and easy-to-follow instructions along with numerous illustrations and diagrams for even the serious-minded beginner. The author begins with the basics: the tools and appliances necessary, what wood to use, how to design, trace, and outline your project. The various methods of carving are described: incised, pierced, and chip carving; carving in the round; Gothic carving; carved ornaments; etc. Many simple projects are offered-small boxes, platters, chairs, stools as well as the more complex, such astables, cabinets, beds and even staircases-any item you can imagine in wood. Filled with a wealth of information, there is much here you could find nowhere else.
