Armoire

Armoire

This armoire, AKA linen press, as it was particularly configured for storing pressed linens in the days before linen closets, was constructed from figured (or curly) cherry as part of a bedroom set which also includes the hope chest and dresser featured below. The entire set was made of wood from the same tree. Throughout the project Tommy took great pains to accentuate the wood’s unique grain utilizing the sapwood as a design element.
