Zum Boden nahm er öfter dänisches, ungeflammtes Ahornholz; die Arbeit
ist nicht übel, auch die Schnecke von ansprechender Form, sein Lack jedoch
(namentlich in den achtziger Jahren) sieht nur wie Möbelpolitur aus. Er verwendet
nebenstehende Brandmarke, dazu die Jahreszahl (z. B. 1887) und No. (Z. B. 130).
