This table is done in genuine mahogany with acanthus knees, ball and claw feet, a heavily carved center column, a birdcage mechanism, and a solid-slab pie crust top.
The legs are dovetailed into the column, and supported with a table spider. It was finished with a homemade stain, shellac and wax. The table top tilts 90 degrees, and latches flat, using the banjo catch from Horton.
The Sheraton Nightstand and Hepplewhite style End table are both handmade of solid mahogany. Traditional mortise and tenon and dovetail joinery were used throughout. Both pieces are finished nicely with a hand rubbed shellac and Horton Brasses Sheraton Knobs. http://www.doucetteandwolfefurniture.com
This tiger maple secretary has influences from the Chippendale period, as well as strong Hepplewhite design influences of the Federal era. It was designed and built by Steve Smith of Anadarko, Oklahoma, and features the fancy bail open pulls. I like using the open pulls on Tiger maple pieces because they allow more of the grain to "speak". I always use hardware from Horton Brasses because it is so authentic to the New England Furniture that I love to copy.
This classic baroquial piece is made of solid curly walnut, eastern white pine, and hard maple. The finish is composed of two water based dyes, linseed oil, shellac, and wax. The drop pulls from Horton finished it off. There's a small hidden box, made of Spanish cedar, underneath the middle drawer in the lower case.

I was inspired to build this project after watching Norm Abram on the PBS TV show "The New Yankee Workshop". I knew I had to obtain the same hardware from Horton Brasses to make the piece authentic.
This clock is made from solid American walnut and the movement is a German made Hermle 1171 Cable movement with 4 chimes and night shut off. The pendulum is and edged motif as well as the weight shells.
The finals, hinges and base insert are solid brass and are imported from the USA. In addition there are 4 pillars fitted on the sides and rounded off with American walnut bases with Yellow wood inserts. The sides have sandblasted class.
This is a Cherry corner cupboard with A single door with a double raised panel door on the bottom and a 8 paned door on top with reclaimed wavy antique glass. The cherry was stained with aniline dye then a hand rubbed oil finish was used. Horton Brasses hardware was used throughout. Brass lift off hinges and brass knobs were used.
This Flat Top Highboy is made with tiger maple and has over 195 handcut dovetails in it, 2 hidden drawers, and hardware from Horton Brasses. It looked great and then I put the hardware on it and it almost came to life. Thanks everyone at Horton Brasses for making this piece look its best.
