When assessing the quality of bespoke furniture, simply pull out a drawer. If you see the interlocking trapezoidal pins and tails of a dovetail joint, you are looking at true craftsmanship. Unlike modern stapled or glued butt joints, dovetails offer incredible tensile strength, making it nearly impossible for the drawer front to pull away from the sides. It is a traditional technique that demands skill and precision, ensuring your furniture lasts for generations.
