This first place winner in 2008, 18th Century Federal Card Table by Ed Stuckey, active member of the Michigan Woodworkers' Guild, is a piece that is even more awe-inspiring in person. Ed uses solid Mahogany with veneers of Mahogany Crotch, Curly Mahogany, Satinwood Crotch, Brazilian Rosewood, Ebony, Curly Maple, Walnut, and Holly.
“This table is a marriage of New York and Baltimore styles of the late 18th century (about 1790-1800)."
