Working with stone and wooden objects since the early 1990's, I have always been intrigued with the stone's shape, texture and color. Like wood, when stone is polished and oiled, the color pops into amazing hues. When restoring Hancock Shaker Village's stone fireplaces and chimneys, I got interested and involved in Shaker architectural lines along with their cultural values. With the help of Ejner Handberg's shop drawings and John Wilson's guidance I was able to replicated the classic Shaker oval box. Materials include tacks from a late 1800's machine, used by the Shakers along with wooden pegs and classic oil/wax finish.
