Chairs I made with some one else's carving... wow!

Post by Baron Conal »

I got an order for a pair of Glastonbury chairs.

They wanted them unfinished so that a local member could do a little 'decorating'

They have been unveiled publicly and I can FINALLY share the photos they sent me as a preview.

the escutcheons were part of a previous set of baronial thrones and they wanted them incorperated
into the new chairs.

all the photos I have are here.....

A shapeless mass,
A book of rules;
And each must make-
Ere life has flown-
A stumbling block
Or a stepping stone”

Indeed. Lambert did the carving on the thrones (Dave Lamb).

Same guy did this painting:

Insanely talented.

He went to Pennsic for the first time last year and decided he needed a pavilion. So he made one.

He then promptly decided that his pavilion looked a little bare so he made all of the chests and furniture he needed to fill it. With the iron work etc.

I repeat, insanely talented.
