Dan Hrinko will be coming to us live from his workshop to provide information regarding campaign furniture dating from the fourth quarter of the 18th century and continuing into the middle of the 19th century. He will talk about the nature campaign furniture, the reasons it existed, the design considerations necessary to make furniture portable and durable, and many of the subtleties of construction.

MEMBERS: Please check your Inbox for the Zoom login information. Reminders will be sent on July 20 and 22.
Dan Hrinko makes 18th Century bentwood and joined boxes of various sorts. His joined boxes include writing slopes in the English style, spice boxes in the northern Virginia style, copies of Thomas Jefferson’s personal writing box, Jefferson’s revolving bookstand, and traveling liquor cellarettes. Other custom items such as boxes for firing glasses or other such items can be commissioned. Each of these boxes is either an exact reproduction or a representative example based on original pieces found in museum collections and are constructed entirely by hand.
Dan has been involved in historical re-enacting for the past 30 years. He began to study and build various items to accurately equip his camp for various re-enactments. He built many items for himself and drew the attention of other re-enactors who sought similar pieces of the highest quality for themselves and their homes.
