The Art & Craft of Keith Bougourd

Back in November I ordered a few pieces of furniture from Keith Bougourd of Small-Time. Keith makes beautiful clocks, but also wonderful furniture and other small items. Be sure to check out his 'how it is made' page, where you can see a short video from the Discovery Channel showing Keith making one of his clocks.

Yesterday the postman brought me the pieces Keith made for me. I love them! On the photos below you can see an Artist Metamorphic Desk with ivory brush pot, a Charles Voysey Swan Chair and an ivory telescope. Aren't they beautiful?

As a backdrop for the photos I clamped some Arts & Crafts wallpaper against a piece of wood and put a piece of fabric down to act as carpet. The room the furniture will go in eventually is the basement of my first canal house, but I haven't started work on that yet. The beautiful furniture has inspired me to get to work on it though!
