Yeah, Dan, that yells “Mission”. Maybe Green & Green? Or maybe good Old Gustav?

Looks good…

Please do give us more construction details. Looks like some through mortise and tenons, some pegged…

What methods did you use to cut the joinery?

Beautiful work! My new favorite bookcase. You got the details just right- from the through tenons, to the arched lower rail. Very nice.
