Stephen Whittlesey's furniture, made of found wood from his home base of Cape Cod, has received national attention since the early 1980s. His furniture is particularly interesting in the context of the studio furniture movement's prizing of fine joinery and flawlessly finished materials. Whittlesey's work, entirely crafted of salvaged materials, revels in the patinas and markings of age and use.
