The hands have a name

If an apprentice cut the piece, the master's portrait is the wrong file.

We got this wrong once and the apprentice stopped speaking to the camera.

Now the question is asked at the bench, and the name in the folder is the name of the hands.

The stool in the stair is hers. It is labeled that way.

The room is above the benches on Strada Decebal. The people who call are the joiners and the shops that buy from them. A job that wants a lifestyle kitchen is declined at the door. Apprentices stay in the frame when their hands made the piece. The master does not pose with someone else's stool. The list on the bench is the edit: what does not fit in the van does not get a picture.
