Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. Furniture Craftsmen have created this intricately detailed table, estimating that a mere two-hundred and fifty hours of work will have gone into its completion. They used a photo of a table built in the later 1700s as a guide to recreate it here. In talking with them about it, they made it seem easy-peasey.

Certainly no power tools laying around this workshop. While the table is intricate, I like the work benches and tools in the background.

It must take a lot of skill and patience to do that kind of work. Beautiful shot, Thad.

I would hate to guess the price tag on this beauty, Thad.
I guess true craft is priceless.

Doesn't look to me to be an easy piece to recreate, but awesome work so far. Great shot.
