Greene and Greene is a distinctive style popular in the Arts and Crafts movement. This desk displays key elements of the style such as: curves in the wood top are cut in the “cloud lift ” style and “dancing peg joinery”. This Greene and Greene Desk is constructed out of Cherry and Ebony.
My Greene and Greene Desk is featured the 2012 summer issue of Arts and Craft Homes and The Revival art and craft section!
I am very proud of this design and thank you all for viewing. This is my passion and live for working with wood. I just try to make a living at at it!
Thanks for viewing!!

Awesome lumberjoe! I do not know if you have became a fan of my page or not but thank you . This is finished with a hand rubbed oil finish. The first one I did originally was with lacquer that was hand rubbed out.

Beautiful piece, with very nice incorporation of G&G elements. I particularly like your development of the drawer pulls.

Hi Brian,
What a very elegant desk you have made, congratulations on this fine piece of craftsmanship!
I am curious on the your breadboard ends, how you did the mortis and tenons and glue up for expansion and contraction?
