Gorgeous! Really incredible. I’m glad you found a market for them. They must be very difficult to price. I hope you were handsomely compensated.

Saw this in the weekly promo
thought, that HAS to be Dennis Zonger…
Then saw “shipwright”…
They are exquisite Paul, like all your work
Love the vibrant, bright colors
and how the sides grab the drawers when closed
Nothing short of Masterful Sir
and a pleasure to see!

Paul, I am just looking at this again, and I’m even more amazed by you. I am wondering how it is that you have no visible pattern loss when you cut through the marquetry for the drawers-it all matched perfectly! How did you do that? Was it cut on a scroll saw with a very thin blade, and then mounted to the drawer front? I would sure love to see you in action, making these remarkable pieces.

Thanks Cindy,
I cut them with a dozuki and then glued each one to a drawer front.
……. Carefully! ??
