Original Hardwood Music Stands
Robert Bragg has always been inspired by original, unique woodworking and furniture designs.
“Approximately five years ago, I lost my best friend – my father, the greatest musician I know,” Bragg says. “I wanted to find a way to honor him and my brother, whose musical influence greatly impacted me. So, I started prototyping a music stand design, which I’m very excited about.

Testimonials
Customers who come into my Stowe gallery have three reactions to Bob's rocking chair. The first is when they first see it and are immediately drawn by the unusual and sleek lines of the design. The second comes when they first touch the wood and sense the quality of the workmanship and the final, most convincing endorsement, comes as they settle into the chair and discover that it is one of the most comfortable things they have ever sat in. Accolades go to Bob for a wonderful design.

We do still love your chair – 7 years later! The design is great for my wife’s back, and the style attracts raves whenever friends visit our home. The matching foot stool also helps my wife enjoy the chair – as it makes it easier for her to sit back in the chair and engage with the curved lumbar slats. Of course, the pretty walnut and hand joinery is part of the attractiveness, as well.
