DE JOUR WITH CENTRE CLOCK
Geoff Wonnacott
Wednesday 9a-5:30p, Thursday 9a-6p $400
Made in the Louis XV style this elegant ladies desk, with slim cabriole legs and sabot feet, will be equally at home in any bedroom, study or suitable corner. Working from a cutting list of timber, veneer and brass hardware, the curved rails and drawers will be shaped. The top section will be fitted with three small drawers and two further drawers with painted false volume fronts. The small centre clock will be fitted (not a working clock). Brass hardware will be added and a finish applied, followed by the leather writing surface. Completion in class is likely, however a full booklet of instructions is provided to finish at home. Approximate size is 3 1/2” high x 2 1/4” wide x 1 3/4” deep.
All supplies are provided by the instructor
except as indicated, however, students are
welcome to bring their own tools & supplies.
