I have several great passions in life (well, I have more than than but well talk about that later). History is one of them and furniture is another. Here is a brief blurb about a craftsman here in the US who fashions furniture from green, unseasoned hardwoods the way it was done centuries ago. His name is Peter Follansbee and I believe he works primarily in oak. The furniture he makes is amazing. Take a look at his blog at:

The detail in his furniture is incredible. I wish I could carve like that!
