Art Nouveau Side Cabinets.

Author: Виктория, April 10, 2014 в Uncategorized

Well, it’s finally time to make side cabinets for my art nouveau sofa. 🙂 Here it is:

I don’t even remember why I didn’t make them, I started making carved panels, they are somewhere, in one of five huge boxes with scrap wood, hehe. I won’t waste my time on looking for them. It’s much easier to make new ones. Besides I had a very rough sketch in Google Sketchup, so I made a new one in Rhino. So far so good, I found quite good mahogany strips, though I still need to make lots of veneer, 2mm.

Working very fast lately, these time – two bedside tables. So the whole bedroom set is finished.

The only thing – when I started making photos today, I thought, hm, the bed is actually for one person only, so why two tables? 🙂 Nevermind, I enjoyed making both.

I’m taking the set to Kensington Festival this year, this morning I found that my UK visa was issued! I didn’t get the passport with it yet, so I’m still “worried” 🙂

These are not made for the commissioned roombox, they are already in their place. Though the dolls are also made by my Mom.

Art nouveau bed is finished. I really like the result. It looks quite old, just what I wanted to achieve with staining pearwood.

Bed – WIP

Bed - WIP

I started making a bed, you can see some carving in progress on the photo above.  And I think I’ll make a chair for the dresser I made earlier, both would look great together.  But it will be after the bed and couple of bedside tables. I’m using pearwood again, it’s very light in color as you can see, so it’ll need some staining too.

And my new addition – this Proxxon sander, they have a bigger model but I decided on this smaller one. Suits my needs perfectly.

I’d make some jigs for it, but don’t have time for it at all, to be honest. Well, back to work! Have a nice day!

Chairs

Author: Виктория, February 24, 2014 в Uncategorized

I always wanted to try different art nouveau styles, if I may say so.  This time – Vienna Secession, Koloman Moser. At first, I spotted his beautiful wardrobe, but then I saw these chairs and immediately started making drawings.

I really liked this dove marquetry piece – its size in 1/12 is 13 mm on 13 mm. Part of the wings are made with mother of pearl, two types actually.

I finished upholstering the second chair, this time I used silk taffeta.

I had to make the back of the seat twice, the veneer split, but the result is great.
