A plan chest made out of poplar. Handles to be fitted. |
This plan chest was made for Chickenland. Chickenland is the trading name for Nando's. The wood that it was made out of was Poplar. It is not commonly used. This is mainly du to the fact that the grain is a little furry, but when it is sanded and sealed it has a wonderfully liquid look. It is also quite a soft wood so can damage easily. This though is the reason why the client asked for the chest to be made out of Poplar. They wanted something that that could be "aged" fairly quickly.
