5.0 out of 5 stars
Enduring examples of the workworker's art,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Maker's Hand: American Studio Furniture 1940-1990 (Hardcover)
The collaborative effort of furniture and woodworking experts Edward S. Cooke, Jr., Gerald W. R. Ward, and Kelly H. L'Ecuyer, The Maker's Hand: American Studio Furniture 1940-1990 beautifully displays elegant wooden furniture impressively enhanced with full color photography. Examining the original and distinctive nature of studio furniture in strict contrast to mass-produced furnishings, The Maker's Hand dwells upon function of these creations, as well as their qualities as three-dimensional, ultimately resonant, and enduring examples of the workworker's art. The Maker's Hand is a welcome and highly appreciated addition to personal, professional, and community library Woodworking, Antiques/Collectibles, and American Furniture reference collections.

This review is from: The Maker's Hand: American Studio Furniture 1940-1990 (Hardcover)
This book is tilted towards the coffee table art book side of things. The pictures are beautiful, and I enjoy art books. Unfortunately I bought it for my husband who likes woodworking books with technical knowledge on how to accomplish things.
