Walnut Chest of Drawers

Ricky, your chest of drawers is gorgeous! I relly like the figure of the walnut and the very nice detail of how you finished the back. Must be very satisfing to see such a beuatiful project from wood that you cut and dried.

Ricky, you have my respect for this piece. It’s beautifully executed. I particularly like the way you have finished surfaces not normally seen. The back looks great and it’s a pity to hide it against the wall. Truly destined to be an heirloom piece.

You just might be a Lumberjock if … you spend your time complimenting the part of a piece that NOBODY WILL EVER SEE. I guess that’s what makes this piece a Masterfully done work of Art. That back, WOW. When the unseen back of an item is better than the FRONT of mine, makes me glad that I’ve decided that the bar has been raised and I need to step up.

Welcome to the shop. (Ya gotta just love it when a Newbie walks into the shop, totin’ a Masterpiece)

Classically elegant design, fantastic execution and a beautiful finish. Great job. This is definitely a piece to be proud of! I’m glad you didn’t succumb to the “lazy’s” and finished the back. A true professional quality piece.

Magnificent. I am glad this came out of the archives.

Ricky,

You posted this long before I came on board but I am glad it came up on my list. This is beautiful. Walnut is such a gorgeous wood with which to work. You did a nice job on this chest.

Thanks for the post.
