EL Gallo Woodworking

About

I have been working with wood for well over thirty years. After thinking I could master the fine art of woodworking by self-instruction, I realized that some formal training might help. So, with encouragement from my wife and kids, I became a student of the late Berthold Schwaiger at the Chicago Bauhaus Studios. I hope I have absorbed some of his patient, precise approach to design and craftsmanship. I have always loved the visual and textual qualities of furniture that are made with different types of wood , or which are accented with inlays or tile. Thus, you will see that many of my pieces combine different species of wood that are inlaid with Spanish, Mexican, and Italian tile.
