Lightly distressed alder box. Curved drawer faces with box joint construction. The pine top is a “crazy” quilt pattern set like tile in a 6/4 Alder frame. The legs are pine logs used for corrals. I used a pine strip on the backsplash and hand turned pine knobs to offset the dark color of the Alder.

Man that is really nice. I really like the contrasting woods you used Dennis and the curved drawer faces. The framed in top and the legs really frame this piece and show it off nicely… Great work..

Dennis, beautiful and one-of-a-kind, like all your stuff!
I really like the contrast of the pine top, especially with the quilt pattern.

definitely a “Dennis Mitchell”
I really love (well the front drawers too) but I really love how the back legs come up right through the piece while the front legs stop a the top.. COOL.
You are one very creative wood artist!

I’d never seen this one; that’s real nice.
I’m sure there’s lots of stuff on this forum I haven’t seen but that’s real nice just the same ;-)

I really like this piece.This has a handmade quality too it and a harks back to a gentler time.I love antiques from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This fits right in.Your choice of these contrasting woods sets it apart from any of those though.Nicely executed Dennis.
And thank you for all your kind support of my work.I really appreciate it!

Thanks Guys.
Andy I always wanted to do a Victorian/Rustic hybrid. It seemed to me that would be a true western style. I just don’t know what I would do with another piece of furniture.
