I made one earlier this year, my daughter liked it and I made another. Only changes were cherry veneered drawers with cockbeading.

So beautiful. The drawer grain is extraordinary. Got to say, everytime I see painted folk art as wild, I think "they really
over did it. No wood has grain that strong". I was wrong.

[Patrick Walsh]

Very nice.

Keep sharing please!

[Frederick Skelly]

Beautiful work. Truly something to be proud of.
I too love the grain on the drawers.

Is this a commission or something that will become an heirloom in your own family?

[Mark Rainey]

Mel, Patrick, Fred, thanks for the comments. Fred, this is for my 19 year old daughter.

Very nice...I like the figure as well. What finish did you use?

Thanks Christian! About 5 or 6 coats of Zinnser shellac, thinned to a 1 to 1.5 pound cut.

Beautiful work. Where did you get the brass handles? They're very nice.

Mike. Thanks Mike. I got all the hardware from Ball & Ball reproductions in Pennsylvania.

Thanks Jim! The snow flakes are falling this morning in NE Pennsylvania!

Which makes me appreciate that I moved here to SE PA back in 1979. LOL (I did see that snow prediction on the news this morning)

Very, very nice work, Mark. I love period furniture and you did the period proud!
