1119 Tapered Mission Dining Leg

The better part of the reason for posting finished pictures of our products is that it is easier to see the potential a component has when you see what someone else has done with it.  For some it is rather easy to try different finishes and different furniture “on” a given leg in their mind’s eye.  For others, though, it is good to be able to benefit from someone else’s vision.

We have a wide variety of customers here at Osborne, too.  While it is true that many of our customers are kitchen cabinet makers/installers, there are also furniture makers, interior designers, and of course, artists.  Gregg Novosad (of Divine Design), for example, is both a furniture maker and an artist.   Creating furniture pieces in keeping with classic furniture styles, Gregg also weaves a storyline into each piece with painstaking attention to detail.

This week, Gregg emailed us a link to some photos of a Rococo styled cabinet he made with our part number 1119, the Tapered Mission Dining leg. First, you can find the story this cabinet represents here.

Now the dining leg.  The Tapered Mission leg presents a great deal of versatility in its simple and straightforward design.  The bold presence of a square leg combined with the almost delicate taper generates a unique yet subtle flair.  Add to these elements the vibrant color of Mr. Novosad’s Rococo cabinet, and a star is born.  This is a stunning piece!

Now, here is the leg in its finished setting, as a part of Mr. Novosad’s Rococo cabinet:
