Thanks for the comments guys! The first Picture is the retrospect. the second one is the original 1988 design. Keep the saw dust flying!!!!!

Great design! That’s a fantastic looking chair.

Both are impressive works! To me the second one is my favorite. I like the curves and soft edges. Looks very inviting.

Yet another design triumph and yet almost entirely different. I’m not impressed, I am awed.

Wow, another beautiful chair. A few similar attributes as the other one, but both unique and beyond beautiful. I like the other chair (the rocking chair, tumba tumba) better but that’s just me. Both are fantastic.

Galing!

Nice to see another Pinoy artist in the LJ fold. I am a Pinoy but not an artist. I like the way you name your pieces and the use of native species. I hope to see more of your projects and the other Filipino artists as well.

I like the design and execution. Great detailing and grain patterns. I imagine your wood is very hard and dense. I’d like to know how you carved the seat so nicely? Power tools, hand tools or a combination. Carving pine is one thing but your wood looks very hard.

Another beauty. Well done

Very interesting design. You deserved the award!

Very nice flowing design. I don’t know anything about Filipino woodworking history. Does this borrow from traditional designs? Also, from what I can tell from the pictures, it looks like all pegged tenon joinery. Is that correct?
