[Reviewed by AWR]
Chris Pye is an acknowledged master carver, and an acknowledged teacher, especially through his books. This book is now in its third reprint and that underlines its popularity. Carving tools and techniques are introduced while turning technique is largely assumed. The chapters progress from surface decorations, lettering, low and high relief through to furniture, ‘in the round’ and pierced work. Each technique is explained in the form of a project. Complete the sun bowl, wheat-ear breadboard, lettered bowl, milking stool, bedpost, patera and you’ll have quite a bit to boast about. For traditional furniture makers, you’ll learn how to carve gadroons, pineapples and berries, not to mention beautiful barley twists.
