This is really a WOW piece. Wood is beautiful, design, unique. The view is good, but the settee is outstanding!

Scott, this is awesome piece. The back is really interesting. Which you like doing best, these or those awesome bowls of yours? They’re both incredible. You are truly an artist.

A very inspiring piece. The woodgrain.. is so appealing and unique. ..it is so sculptural …are you gonna let anyone sit on it? I can’t say i have seen anything like it.

very nice, I think this one is my favorite … the back of the seats are very unique. What do you on the tips of the legs ?

Beautifully done! But why is the sette placed so that the sitter looks away from that fabulous view?

Very well done. Love the design and that gorgeous walnut. Your office chair is also a very nicely done piece, but I think this one is my favorite.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!!

Kolwdwrkr-not as much as I probably should have but at least I’m making a living!!I can send you a pm if really want the price(I prefer not to post it here)

Gary -I really enjoy doing them both I like the carved vessels probably a little more but they are also harder to sell

Dan – on all my chair tips I carve a little “dog ear”into it blending into the headrest I have better pics of that detail on my web site

mmh-That’s funny after we took the picture they sat in it and said at the same time “we’re facing the wrong way”
Thanks again for all comments!!

Great Piece! I love the fact that you kept the back rest open. What is your secret with the back joint? What have you done to instill confidence, structurally speaking, to not have any back members from the bottom of the seat to support such a stretch? I think you did a very nice job on this. I appreciate your other posted projects as well.
