▲ Knots in No. 2 cypress are some of the little surprises that give visual interest to George's furniture, even though these character marks mean extra finishing work "My pieces have a soothin' flow of visual activity, you might say," he proudly remarks.

George thought out and tried all the possibilities to make perfectly matched radius moldings. These pie-shaped pieces complete the corners on massive, rounded mirror frames and the cornice trim on Empire beds and armoires. George found the solution on the lathe.
