About me

Dear visitors, Let me introduce:  My name is Pál Dobesch, I am woodcarwer and cabinetmaker.

My profile is designing and executing furnitures in all the historical styles ( romanesque, gothic, renaissance, baroque, rococo, neo-classical, art nouveau).
If a costumer have any special demand, it can be realised. I' m able to do the whole process of furniture making from the first sketch to the finished piece.

Special demands can be for example: 

-To complete a set of furnitures, matching to the originals.
-To design and execute any furniture, or decorative element, harmonically for a certain interior.
-Collaboration with interior designers and architects.
-To re-carve missing parts of antique furnitures, or reconstruct whole pieces.
-Restoration of carved furnitures.
-Gilding
-Figurative sculptorwork (by Máté Dobesch)
