Fine Woodworking's Design Book Seven is a showcase of exceptional woodworking by craftsmen from around the world. Readers get a full-color, visual feast of recent work that includes turning, carving, sculpture, furniture and instrument making.

More than 300 outstanding works from the mid-1990s show a variety of design styles, from traditional to contemporary. Each piece shows how its maker used color and form to bring out the best in wood.

All woodworkers will find design ideas to apply to their own pieces. And everyone who loves well-made, hand-crafted wooden objects, from elegant chairs to delicately crafted musical instruments will find inspiration and enjoyment.
