Mesquite Green & Green dinning chairs-It’s been a while since I have been on LJ I have spent the last two weeks trying to complete this table set. I told the customer I would get it to them by Christmas now looking back it was an unrealistic deadline. I basically did nothing but stay in the shop all day for the past two weeks. But I kept my word and in this business I think that is a BIG thing to do.It was all worth it though. I delivered it up to Golden CO yesterday (barely missed the huge snow storm). The customer actually started to cry so, that kinda gave me a warm fuzzy. Anyway the chairs are out of Mesquite with Turquoise inlayed in the natural cracks.The design is based from a Green & Green “Blacker House Chair” that the customer had seen.The table I will post next.
See the table that went with the chairs

Nice set of chairs. I bet they look great with the turquoise inset. I’d cry having to give them to the customer.

That is really a great chair, Scott. Excellent philosophy as well. We worked all day yesterday on an install for the same reason. I promised it by the first of the year. Again, I really want to see the new photos.
