More DescriptionKrenov once again provides instruction and inspiration to his legions of fans. In this oversized format you'll find 100 black-and-white photographs, 47 in color, and an intimate text that showcases the peak of his talent. The pictures by Bengt Carlen reveal the signature on all of Krenov's pieces-- precision, delicacy, quiet strength, intricate grains, satin-smooth finishes, matched joints, attention to detail, and a respect for the tools and materials themselves. These are but a few of the more than 20 examples exhibited in this collection--a cabinet of old Swedish elm; a writing table of Italian walnut; a no-glass showcase of lemon wood; a wall cabinet of English brown oak; and more.
