Traditional, hand made furniture in English hardwoods

The beauty of book-matched grain

Book-matching refers to the process of splitting the wood and opening the two halves out so that they lie side-by-side. This mirrors the grain and gives a beautiful effect. I use this method wherever possible - it gives a lovely appearance to a hand made table top.

It is difficult to show book matched table examples on a
web site because of the relatively small picture size; but
have a look at these examples of the technique, which
are small pieces, hand made for use as candelabra.
They measure perhaps 18" - 20" wide:
