Humpday Trivia A-Go-Go
When we read:
His designs have a remarkable stylistic unity - a marked preference for the simple, sometimes severe, outlines combined with flat (painted or inlaid) decoration of great delicacy and elaboration, sometimes with stringing lines and contrasting veneers in geometrical patterns, sometimes with intricate arabesques or figurative panels. Whereas many earlier designers seem almost to have been ashamed of using wood as their medium, his patterns emphasize its essential qualities. The grains of the veneers are carefully delineated; the forms are those which come easily to craftsmen working with saws and lathes. His designs are very elegant, very delicate, and perhaps rather feminine.
