Richard Jensen
Born in 1934 to parents of Swiss & Danish ancestry, I received an early introduction to working with wood from my father Stanley. From my mother Frieda, who painted the faces on watches before emigrating from Switzerland, I inherited her artistry and attention to detail.
While working in residential construction in my younger days I always looked for newer, innovative ways to work. As I searched I became increasingly fascinated by the joinery techniques employed by the cabinetmakers of old.
As my interest grew I gravitated more and more to designing and fabricating one-of-a-kind pieces of solid wood furniture. Each commissioned piece is lovingly crafted with an eye for detail in the studio in rural Minot Maine. Contact me today for more information. |
