Client wanted me to match 30 year old cherry cabinets that she thought were completely custom. Anyway, I built the triple-door pantry (designed by interior designer), the 2 base cabs in the island that are 10” deep, and the 3 base cabs on oven wall. This was a great learning experience for me with many techniques, especially the finishing.

whoops i see you DO have arcs up top. they’re much softer somehow than the existing cabs. nice match without looking dated.

Looks really good!
Matching old Cherry with new Cherry is really tough since it changes so much with age.
Very nice job.
