Secretary desk shown with the top both open and closed, this curly maple piece is made in the same manner of an 18th century original. It features some 168 hand cut dovetails, period chased brasses, ogee bracket feet and a hand applied finish. The gallery is a close copy of a 1760 secretary seen in a local museum. This piece captures the look and has the presence of work built in an earlier time. You can find James Kroll on the web at www.jameskrollfinewoodworking.com
