Note: Timothy Philbrick recasts traditional furniture with a contemporary feeling. The quiet stylishness, gentle curves, subtle shaping and innate sense of wood apparent in his work have earned the respect of his peers. He favors rare and sometimes extinct materials (amber, fossil ivory, Cuban mahogany) as well as native species (curly maple and curly cherry). .
