 | FURNITURE: Those of you who have visited our Retail Gallery in Manchester will be very familiar with the fine furniture created by Dan Mosheim of Dorset Custom Furniture.

You can take a look at his web page on this site (DAN MOSHEIM), or go to his own web site at http://www.dorsetcustomfurniture.com . |
| FURNITURE: Remember a rocking chair that was almost too comfortable, or a side chair so light you can lift it with one finger? Tim Clark's furniture is influenced by the Shaker style and is characterized by solid and true joinery marked by hand shaped chair parts, hand cut dovetails on drawers, mortise and tenon construction on tables, and building techniques that allow for the seasonal movement of wood. Check out his website at http://www.timothyclark.com |
