Matching his words to his work, Sheraton designed much mahogany furniture. The qualities that impressed Sheraton are particularly evident in a distinctive pattern of wood called ''flame mahogany.'' The flame figure in the wood is revealed by slicing through the face of the branch at the point where it joins another element of the tree. Our reference: A2544Height is 121cm (47.6inches)
