Dining Room Furniture:
frklndininga.jpg (37121 bytes) frklndiningb.jpg (44330 bytes) frnklnone.jpg (51777 bytes) This dramatic dining room furniture was inspired by the designs of the Prairie Architects.  Shown here in quartersawn white oak with a satin waterproof finish.   "Lanterns" on each of the four posts are done in artglass, one bulb per post.  To dine at this table is a real experience. The high-back chairs create an intimate enclosure for those around the table.  And the glass lanterns give off the glow of candlelight.  Table  43H   95L  48D  and  29H to tabletop. $3750.00  Chair  51H  15 1/2W  17D.  $795.00 each as shown for four or more.  This design can, of course, be altered to suit your needs. 
frklnsdbda.jpg (35924 bytes) frklnsdbdb.jpg (28241 bytes)   Done as a companion piece to the group above, this sideboard has custom artglass panels in the doors and the wood used is quartersawn white oak.  29 1/2H   72L  20D.   $2825.00.
  o park dining.jpg (44150 bytes) Similar to table above, the wood is flat sliced white oak instead of quartersawn. Some folks favor this look and that's why I've included it here. Same chairs as above, table a little smaller. Please email for more details if interested.
zlrdining.jpg (23978 bytes) husserchrfrt.jpg (25151 bytes) husserxsix.jpg (40578 bytes)  Inspired by the Prairie aesthetic - massive, architectural, with lines that accentuate the horizontal.  The chairs take their inspiration from the Prairie architects as well  All the pieces are in cherry.  Table  30H  84W  42D. $3675.00  There are better pictures of one of these tables farther down the page.  Chair   51H  16 1/2W  17D. $895.00 each, slightly more for quantities under four.  These pieces were finished with a waterproof, urethane-based product, but they can also be finished in oil.  .
zlrsidebd.JPG (43260 bytes) This sideboard was done as a companion piece to the work above.  Drawers dovetailed front and back, hand-fitted into the case.  European hinges on the doors.  All in cherry.  30H  72W  20D.  $2675.00.
  Dailydining.jpg (44023 bytes) Dailydiningg.jpg (55842 bytes) Dailydininggg.jpg (64296 bytes)  The table pictured is almost square w/o the extensions. With leaves, the table measures 96L 72W 30H and can comfortably seat 10 diners. Done in quartersawn white oak the table would be $5025.00, the chairs $795.00 (4 or more).
allenone.jpg (29363 bytes) allentwo.jpg (32878 bytes) im000832.jpg (45883 bytes) The cherry dining table shown here was inspired by Prairie designs.  Believe me, it looks more massive in real life. First 2 pictures in oak and third in cherry.  Finished in a urethane based, fully waterproof finish.   30H  42W  96D - $3675.00 cherry or oak, design can be altered .
elliotttblnchrs.jpg (28872 bytes) elliottchrs.jpg (43360 bytes) elliottsdbd.jpg (47798 bytes)  This dining group  has an elegance all its own. Prairie style in every way, and the chairs with slanted backslats adds an extra bit of comfort.  The sideboard is just like the one with glass doors farther up the page only in cherry.  The picture on the right was provided by the folks that commissioned the work - thank you!   Table  29 1/2H  42W  96L - $3825.00.  Chair - 52H  16W  19 1/2D - $975.00 each.  Sideboard  29 1/2H  72L  20D - $2995.00.
coonleyhighfront.jpg (34965 bytes) coonleyhighback.jpg (32635 bytes) coonleylowfront.jpg (26571 bytes) coonleylowbk.jpg (29338 bytes)  My version, in cherry, of a Prairie style dining chair.  The customer wanted the backs 7 inches higher than the original.  The details, all combined give the chair a Japanese look.   44"H  17W   18D highback, and 27 1/2 H lowback.  Four or more of this chair would sell for $925.00 each and $725.00 lowback. 
Taliesinlow.jpg (35934 bytes) Taliesinhigh.jpg (35451 bytes)  I truly enjoyed creating this table in cherry and I think the subtle Japanese detailing went together very well.  This table serves as a conference table for a law office, the dimensions are  30"H  48"W  110"D, oil finish.  $4325.00. 
schumtbl.jpg (30351 bytes) schumtblext.jpg (28966 bytes)  The customers commissioning this work took advantage of my ability to customize.  The table, Prairie School through and through, goes from 7 feet to 10 feet via end leaves.  They wanted the ability to remove the lanterns completely when more space was needed.  I left the glass off the lanterns for a local artisan in their town to match work he'd  done elsewhere in the house.  The chairs are true Prairie style and the backslats are slanted.  All work in cherry. Table: 30H  76L  42D  $5225.00  Chairs:  52H  17W  19  1/2D  $975.00 each (4 or more).  
schumtblwblbs.jpg (41778 bytes) slanthussxsix.jpg (36236 bytes)
schmchersdbdfrt.jpg (31719 bytes) scmchersdbdlft.jpg (33356 bytes) schmcheropendrs.jpg (33254 bytes) The drawing for this piece was supplied by the customer and may be unique I think.  I call it a Prairie style double sideboard - doors on both sides.  The customers wanted a large unit to store dinnerware and to also be a break between the dining area and the living room. It was done as a companion piece to the group above almost a year later.  In cherry, 30H  38W  82L  $4450.00    With a few minor changes this piece could serve as a library table.
exttblunex.JPG (35570 bytes) exttbl.jpg (42351 bytes) This table was recently done and represents a solution to a problem I've been thinking about for awhile - how to do a large extension table with sturdy leaves that store underneath the top.  When the lantern collars are lifted slightly, the main top can be lifted and the extensions slide easily out or back in and the top automatically adjusts.  Unextended the table seats four, and extended it seats eight. This piece can be done without lanterns.  The table shown, in cherry with lanterns, would be $3795.00, without lanterns $3275.00.  Dimensions - unextended - 63L  36D  39H, extended - 100L  36D  39H.  Table height w/o lanterns would be 30".  
jul17_01glasgow.jpg (29166 bytes) mactsh_chair.jpg (18599 bytes) jul17_01tulip-lattice.jpg (11462 bytes) The dining furniture pictured here was an attempt to draw inspiration primarily from the work of Rennie Mackintosh while incorporating a few Wrightian features - mainly, the use of lanterns on each post.  Dining at this table is absolutely unique.  The colored glass, both in the lanterns and inlaid into the backs of the chairs, plus the off-white color, makes routine meals seem special and almost magical.   Colors for the artglass lanterns are pink, lavender, spring green, black and off white. Table  42H  89L  38D.  $4325.00 as shown. Chair  53H  15 1/2W   17D.  $825.00 like these for four or more.
wlbingtbl.JPG (26086 bytes) wlbingtblfrnt.JPG (28440 bytes) Very similar to the Mackintosh styled table above, this table was done in a dark stained quartersawn white oak and the glass for the lanterns was supplied by the customer. A dark stain such as this requires 5 to 6 coats of stain before the finish is applied, adding to the cost.  42H  95L  42W.  $4325.00 as shown.
im001060.jpg (56115 bytes)  im001058.jpg (47167 bytes) A Prairie style dining set in quartersawn white oak. The chairs are a contemporary rendering of the Coonley chair. Fabric supplied by customer. Table takes it inspiration from the Taliesin table. Table 30H 42W 104L  $4150.00  Chairs 52H 17W 19D $825 (4 or more).
brgrdsidebd.JPG (25117 bytes)   brgrdsideopen.JPG (33111 bytes) My customers contributed greatly to this wonderful, I'll call it Mission style sideboard. The doors fold out on each side allowing open access. Quartersawn white oak with a shaker maple stain. Mission hardware. 33H 72L 17D  As shown $2235.00
  im000905.jpg (50735 bytes) im000896.jpg (38634 bytes) Copy of FLW table.jpg (86290 bytes) Set of eight Robie style chairs in quartersawn white oak, clear finish and black leather seats.  Pictures L to R - finished set, chair construction, customer supplied picture of chairs around an original FLW table - Sutton house. 52T  17D  17W  $975.00 (4 or more).
  im000560.jpg (58147 bytes) im000562.jpg (49311 bytes) Prairie style sideboard in quartersawn white oak with a shaker maple stain I believe. Truly a grand piece. 104L  20D  42T  $3225.00 as shown.
  im000304.jpg (19820 bytes) im000305.jpg (25479 bytes) I've forgotten now where these sturdy looking chairs went, or who ordered them, and have only unfinished pictures, but I like the design very much. The chair is a short back version of the Husser chair. The seat was just a quickly fashioned mock up. For possible dimensions and pricing please contact me.
  im000532.jpg (35211 bytes) A one off dining chair made years ago shown without seat (only picture I have). Shown here as food for thought and for possible dimensions and pricing, contact me.
