HAND CARVED WOOD Perhaps the most demanding skill in the rich tradition of craftsmanship is hand carving. Archeologists can date early surviving examples over three thousand years old. Fantastic wooden objects have been uncovered in Egyptian tombs alongside jewel encrusted gold and silver artifacts. Other examples date from the Middle Ages, primarily ecclesiastical figures. The Renaissance was the setting for the reawakening of the decorative arts. Specialized guilds of artisans were formed to advance and protect particular skills. Carvers guilds arose throughout Europe alongside goldsmiths, jewelers and other similar trades. The richly ornamental styles of the 17th and 18th centuries are a testament to the caliber of craftsmanship available. Our carvers use the same tools and techniques as their 18th-century counterparts. After years of training, their skills are applied to a wide variety of Maitland-Smith items. Examples include our hand carved mahogany dining chairs, occasional chairs, mirror frames and numerous decorative objects
