One may see here the evolution of chandeliers, tables, bed frames and their headboards, where metal, wood, glass, and stone are reinterpreted to furnish civilization. Barlas Baylar chain chandeliers trace the descent of light along glass strands dripping like fringe with gently sinuous waves of metallic piping. The solemn beauty of dying trees is forever captured in solid slabs serving as seats. Then there are the accessories that seem stone and wood all at once - petrified wood, naturally. And these floor samples only hint at the routine activities of his bustling New York City workshop.

Only dead or dying lumber is used, especially that from arbor salvaged after a storm.
