Walnut Makeup Table

Made a Makeup Table for a client that I also did a lot of other work for.

Made the legs using the Queen Anne bandsaw technique and then a lot of sanding. Used a draw knife for some of the wood removal.

Did the tenons on the tablesaw. The curved apron I had to do another way.

Added some 3/32" thick strips to build up the thickness. Glued it up.

Truly a unique commission and a great piece of craftsmanship!

I love furniture designed for a specific place. Well done.

Agree with all. And designed for a special place some how seems more luxurious than built in. Love the conveniently angled mirror hugging the wall. Think it would look even better all one color or with a stone top; its the star and stars are not for "blending in".

An eye-pleaser as usual Leo. You get the most interesting projects and always deliver. I love the elevated mirror platform.

Very well done Leo!
