It’s beautiful and well photographed. Your dovetails are so nice. It’s a simple but elegant design. I’m sure it will fit in any interior. Well done Rondo.

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Beautiful piece! Nice attention to the grain on the drawers.
Excellent project well done.   Walnut was a good choice!

Nice clean lines. Beautiful lumber. Great job. Bravo...
A real eye catching dresser. Love the detail of the continuous grain across the drawers. Every woodworker who sees it will recognize the effort and others will sense quality, even if they cannot identify why.
Replicate Steve and the other guys comments.
A very attractive piece I must say.

Regarding the hand cut dovetails, I used a David Barron magnetic dovetail guide.  I feel it significantly helps increase speed and accuracy without sacrificing the hand cut look.  
Beautiful craftsmanship.
Elegant!
Nice work and eye for features with the grain matching, well done!
