 The Thorsen house living-room tableHere is a brief discussion of one of my favorite pieces by Greene & Greene: the living-room table from the William R. Thorsen house in Berkeley. It is both familiar and unique as well as stunningly beautiful.

Re: The Thorsen house living-room table Wow! That really is a lovely living room piece. I've taken woodworking classes in the past, and I certainly can't create something quite that magnificent. It really goes to show you how we take certain pieces of furniture for granted. We view them as stuff we "sit and put drinks on", but a lot of hard work gets put into those pieces.
This is actually the first time that I'm hearing of "Green & Green." I'll certainly be keeping an eye on them. Thank you for sharing!  _________________ Nothing more awesome than vintage or custom made wooden furniture.
