Furniture I Love: John Reed Fox Edition

This is another case where there were so many great examples of work by John Reed Fox, I had difficulty choosing which ones to feature. His Donna Cabinet, below, is so well balanced -- with the legs lifting up the mass of the carcass, with the light cedar design in contrast to the rich cherry – it looks like this wood was destined to be this piece of furniture.


I love how the book-matched figure makes this table appear to be on fire!


Here are a couple more stunning examples of beautiful design and exquisite craftsmanship:
