news from the metal shop

sam's been busy in the metal shop since open studio ... he's done several steel bases for our designer friend jennifer palumbo in boston, working in conjunction with her local upholsterers, who judging from the

photos, are really good at what they do.  click the photos to enlarge them. .....

essentially, they are 'platforms' to support the upholstery .. this one in two pieces as it was quite large.

welded and painted

for the same project, a steel bench base

a custom bench base

with our 'dark bronze' finish

and a garden arch in painted steel ..

                                                      some grouse belt buckles ..

i think this is called a california balcony, but i've also heard it called a 'juliet' balcony.  

sam did a couple of these for the same builder a few years back. second floor french doors.
