"HOPE" is a collectible masterpiece: a two-drawer dovetail box sculpted entirely by hand from raw maple, walnut, cherry, and purpleheart. Every surface was refined using only hand planes and saws; every joint—from half-blind dovetails to precision mortise-and-tenons—was struck by chisel and mallet. This 50-hour labor of devotion, finished in organic orange oil and beeswax, serves as a manifesto for the return of "true handmade" in high-end cabinetmaking. Featured in Furniture & Cabinetmaking (Issue 325) and honored as Commended Maker of 2025, it is a rare, award-winning intersection of heritage craft and contemporary artistry.
