Welcome back!

This sure is a nice Highboy,  looks very well crafted.
Hope you will share some more of your work.

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.

That is a classic piece of furniture.

I like the flat panels and beadwork all around.  Looks like you turned the knobs?  I have done similar work on a lingerie chest of drawers. 

Beautiful work
