Peter Follansbee | Joiner

He may look a bit like Rick Rubin, but Peter Follansbee handles a very different type of board. Since 1980, he’s been working with furniture. First as a chair maker and later as a joiner. Now, Follansbee is one of the most respected and renowned makers of reproduction 17th-century joined furniture. His scholarship is widely published and his workshop at Plymouth Plantation one of the institutions true joys. Follansbee’s work relays the craft of early America. Beautiful stuff.
