Sculpture / Misc
Millennium Lamp
22″ diameter shade, 27″ tall
glass, brass, aluminum, mahogany
This is a contemporary style desk lamp for the new millennium. Featuring a slumped glass shade topped with a spun aluminum crown, this lamp is offered with dual independently switched circular fluorescent tubes, or an incandescent 4-bulb array with dimmer. The central core column encases a neon colored (choice of colors available) tube that creates an alluring presence. The solid mahogany base adds warmth to the assembly, while the precision of the machined aluminum gives it the predominant modern deco look.
Floor Standing Clock
24″w x 11″l x 65″h
bubinga, ebony
A newer version of one of my first pieces done in 1976, this clock features a solid, dovetailed case construction with ebony accents. The German movement is housed behind glass doors and boasts custom made gold plated hardware.
“Cosmo” sculpture/box
8 1/2″ diameter sphere
Australian jarrah and brass
Award winning (1st place: 2002 Box and Container Show, Northwest Fine Woodworking Gallery, Seattle, WA and 3rd place: 2002 Design in Wood, Accessories division, San Diego County Fair) Cosmo was designed to challenge the field of wood turning. Exhibiting a combination of exacting turning and sculpting techniques along with very precise custom made hardware, Cosmo makes a primarily sculptural piece functional. This piece was featured in 400 Boxes, Lark Books, 2004.
