Art Deco Style Jewelry Cabinet
Finally after 18 months since my design drawing of the Art Deco style Jewelry cabinet, it is completed. This was the most fun I've ever had making a piece of furniture. The hidden door can only be opened by pulling out the top middle drawer. It sure does feel good to be done. Thank you for looking!

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
The phrase "Work of art" somehow seems inadequate. "Masterpiece" falls a bit short as well.
"Speechless" is about right

I'd call it a "Work of Dennis", heavy on detail and design to bring in something as a whole that is greater than the parts.
Certainly watch your footing and not trip when delivering that!

I'll echo Pottz's comment.
I’m so glad we have members as talented as you Dennis. Your are by far one of the most skilled workers I have ever seen. And the photography is great too.

Congrats, an amazing furniture piece! So much attention to detail and elements to look at in one piece.

As usual your work is spectacular. I will say 18 months isn't a bad time frame considering the detail in it.
I'm speechless, and Pottz's comment fits me to a T.
The exacting detail is phenomenal and out of this world, you have just raised the bar for the rest of us until it is out of reach. A thumbs up here seems inappropriate, would be like giving a thumbs up to Leonardo da Vinci for the Mona Lisa.
Fantastic, just Fantastic.

That is spectacular... that last picture of the inlays. even down under is,
and I can fully appreciate your,
It sure does feel good...
however, I question your sanity... unless you're a masochist, how can you say,
"This was the most fun I've ever had making a piece of furniture."
I can barely imagine some of the frustrations, challenges and stumbles you came across in those 18 months...
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
Stunningly beautiful!

15 months in your spare time is very impressive. It could take some people 15 months working on it full time.
