ANOTHER AMAZING WOOD ARTIST – PAUL BAKER Posted on December 4, 2019December 5, 2019by
Andrew Perkins
Paul reached out to me with part of an interesting project he’s in the middle of: making cameras. These are late 18th century cameras, replica Victorian cameras as if from aproximately 1893. After sending me some pictures of his work and his want of some intricate scrimshaw, we conversed via email and worked out what he was envisioning. Thankfully, the graphic artist knew the fonts she had used for the cards he had printed – also using similar techniques for that period, and I was able to reproduce them on a piece of galalith. Being in California, any type of ivory is out of the question, but galalith was also from that period and being used for everything from an ivory alternative for hairbrushes and other sundry items to musical instruments, steering wheels and decorations for some of the first Ford cars. He was gracious enough to allow me some freedom on the design, the result is in the pictures below. This is part of a larger art installation he is working on, which I will elaborate on if he allows. It’s a fascinating idea that he is pouring his creative talents into with wonderful results. I’d have to say he is an excellent craftsman as well, and I look forward to seeing his final results. (continued…) Base of a camera under glass – a specimin from the life of Beauchamp A. Pettibone, Esq. A camera similar to one of several Paul Baker is recreating (photo courtesy icollector.com) Paul’s camera, including ribbon mahogany veneer, shagreen (stingray leather), and some clever use of drafting equipment for pinpoint focusing, all period correct to the 19th century) Shagreen was used to cover telescopes on clipper ships. Closeup of the shagreen and Beauchamp’s focusingmechanism.
Intrigued? It’s a fascinating project and history lesson, story and adventure all in one! Find out more by visiting his site at http://www.c-clampstudios.com/ Posted in Uncategorized NEW COMMISSION FOR A CLAVICHORD Posted on November 27, 2019November 27, 2019by Andrew
Perkins
It was a pleasure to create the nameplate for this clavichord. A clavichord was used largely in the Late Middle Ages, through the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical eras. Historically, it was mostly used as a practice instrument and as an aid to composition, not being loud enough for larger performances. The maker created this for his son, who is a classically trained musician. I’m hoping to get an MP3 sample of it soon and will attach it here.Posted in Projects
MYSTERY ARTIST 50 – BESSA Posted on September 5, 2019September 11, 2019by Andrew Perkins
Another beautiful piece more than likely originating in Portugal, it depicts a three masted ship with a lighthouse in the foreground. The owner “came across this whale tooth at a small antique shop in Branson, Missouri, about 30 years ago. It was delight at first sight! I remember the price tag had “From the Azores” written on it. It measures 6″ x 2.5″, and is heavy for its size. It makes one wonder how many Giant Squid this thing’s clamped onto.” The owner continues: “… If you’re a fan of sailing ship rope-ladders,…and who isn’t? Then enjoy, because there’s about 18 of them. “ A beautiful piece. anyone who knows of or knew Bessa? We’d all enjoy hearing more about this artist. Leave comments below.

MYSTERY ARTIST 49 – SD Posted on September 3, 2019September 3, 2019by Andrew Perkins
What looks to be an old walrus tooth or a bone fragment, this scrimshaw of a lighthouse looks almost ancient. Nicely shadow framed, the artist’s mark is “SD” or “SB” if the crossing of the lower part of the S was meant to do so. Nice shading on the dome. The owner purchased it at the flea market near Asheville, NC from a lady who worked with girl scouts. Anyone know the artist? Please comment in the section below! Posted in Mystery Artist MYSTERY ARTIST 48 – STEVE BARLOW? Posted on June 3, 2019June 3, 2019by Andrew
Perkins
Barlow is a name many people recognize in scrimshaw. Just about everything I’ve ever seen on finished goods such as knives, belt buckles, lighters, jewelry, etc. This one is scrimmed on what appears to be a whale tooth, and was inherited recently. An amazing amount of seagulls circle the ship, more than the typical 2-5 on most scrimshaws. The front is extremely polished while the back is dull and unpolished. We’re waiting for a picture of the signature which will hopefully be provided soon. The owner writes: “I have this piece that is scrimshawed and is absolutely beautiful. I don’t know if it’s a whale tooth or walrus. It’s signed by Steve Barlow. I have attached a couple of pictures and hope that maybe you can guide me to finding someone that can tell me if it’s a real original or a Knock-off. I received it from as an inheritance and have no clue. …” The signature appears as “Steve T Barlow”… Base of tooth appears to the right. While there is a nerve cavity, the sides appear quite thick… If you have any knowledge of the piece, please leave your commentsbelow.
