Daniel Pabst (June 11, 1826 - July 15, 1910) was a virtuoso cabinetmaker of the Victorian Era, who created some of the most extraordinary hand-carved furniture in America. Sometimes working in collaboration with architect Frank Furness (1839-1912), he crafted pieces in the Neo-Grec, Renaissance Revival, Modern Gothic, and Colonial Revival styles. Examples of his work are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in Great Britain.

Famous quotes containing the word daniel:
“And who in time knowes whither we may vent
The treasure of our tongue, to what strange shores
This gaine of our best glorie shal be sent,
T’inrich unknowing Nations with our stores?
What worlds in th’yet unformed Occident
May come refin’d with th’accents that are ours?”
—Samuel Daniel (c. 1562–1619)
