This artwork has something extra that distinguishes it.

Each piece of furniture is the result of master craftsmenship employing a tongue-and-groove technique that calls for meticulous carving rather than a hammer and nails. The signature ruffled surface of the wood is done by hand with a plane and ruler.

As a family rather than a factory, one artisan works on one piece from commencement until completion. His name is etched in an obscure part of the wood just as an artist’s signature on a canvas.
