Most of my carving is for furniture, but I am starting to delve into traditional eagles and am getting ready to do some more elaborate 'Bellamy Eagles.'
Here's a few photos of a traditional Cape Cod eagle, ca. 1770 or so, that I carved:
The next is a pie-crust tilt top tea table with lots of carving:
Below is a Phila. 18th century spice box on frame. It's got 14 secret drawers! A bit over the top, I know - but fun to make.
The next pictures are of a Philadelphia lowboy, ca. 1780-90's: carved shells on legs, fan, and trifid feet.
