This was a very busy fall following the installation of the Art Nouveau Gallery in NYC. We sold an Art Nouveau desk exhibited at the Gallery at Somes Sound to a client in Toronto. Then two Art Nouveau chairs sold during the November Fine Furnishings Show in the Pawtucket Armory, RI. In the interim, I designed and am carving an Art Nouveau screen for the CraftBoston 2014 show. drawing up a staircase for NYC, and planning to build an Art Nouveau dining room in Massachusetts.
