Three Legged Table

Top is curly yellow birch, belt is tiger maple, legs are cherry with purple heart appliqué and ebony leg ends. Top is a one piece curly yellow birch crust, retaining the shape of the tree and a continuous wood grain on the entire surface.  For pieces of furniture of that type, I use mainly curly wood to give more emphasis. Those are wood pieces that are in limited quantities and none have the same shape so the pieces of furniture are impossible to reproduce.  Those pieces of wood are not all curly the same way and some aren't at all.  You only find a good piece of curly wood occasionally on some blocks of wood.  Those pieces are not sold by wood suppliers, you have to get them yourself.

Armchair

Cherry, curly yellow birch and ebony are the types of wood used in this piece.  Uprights are bent and laminated.  Upholstery is in genuine leather.  Linseed oil and shellac are used for finishing.  An assembly of ultra thin sheets of paper and linseed oil is done between layers.  As much as ten layers are applied, depending on the desired finish.
