Rare & Early Cloud Box by Mark Lindquist, 1977
6" high x 12" wide 5.5" deep
"I made this "Cloud Box" when I was teaching at the Worcester Craft Center in 1977. It's one of maybe 5 pieces made out of walnut and bird's-eye maple that year, and I think was probably sold at a craft fair, maybe Rhinebeck? In 1978 or so? Can't remember exactly - although I seem to remember having sold it to someone named Doug... But that was a long time ago. I still have one from that series that I kept all these years and would not sell. This series is something I began in the mid-seventies and was a phase I went through. The majority of the Cloud Boxes were made of spalted maple cut from one piece and reassembled so the walnut stacked laminated pieces are atypical of the series and were mostly experimental as I was working out construction techniques. This is definitely an original Mark Lindquist piece, yet is not something immediately recognizable of my work other than the Cloud Box form itself. I discuss the series in my book “Sculpting Wood” published by David in 1986." MARK LINDQUIST (personal communication)
