Shaker Furniture Woodworking Plans

Shaker furniture is widely admired for its simplicity, innovative joinery, quality, and functionality. Shaker designs were inspired by the ascetic religious beliefs of the Society. Shakers made furniture for their own use, as well as for sale to the general public.

Many examples of Shaker furniture survive and are preserved today, including such popular forms as Shaker tables, chairs, rocking chairs (made in several sizes), cabinets, and bedsteads.

Its appeal to the modern eye is undeniable, and the underlying principles of Shaker design have given inspiration to some of the finest designers of modern furniture

Like wall clocks built by the Shakers in the early 19th century, our version features clean, unadorned design lines. Although the Shakers frowned upon watches, wall clocks abounded. Today collectors seek out the originals and pay dearly for them. Our clock measures 13" wide, 6" deep, and just under 3' tall.
