The Lordly work bench of house Chave. Inspired by English, French and Japanese tradition. The main feature of the bench is an inlayed wagon vise and a dog/ doghole system which allows the entire work surface to function as a clamp / compressional surface. The goal of this force multiplier is combine art and functional craft. Namely traditional wooden weapons / weapon systems. The side vise pictured will also be fitted for standard uses and more specifically bow making. I will name her… Alice.
