A carved, ebonized, and gilded, wing back chair

Elaborate and beautiful. What more can be said good job. mike

Absolutely stunning. Your carvings bring back fond childhood memories. I did yard work for a nice elderly lady that had several pieces of furniture with ball and claw feet. My favorite chair of hers had carved dog heads for the arms. If I could transfer the image in my head to your artist skills, we would have a wonderful thing. Sorry, I digress. Great craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing.

That is a great looking chair. I can’t say that I like the upholstery but the woodworking aspect is fantactic!

John,

As I said in the blog good job on the woodworking end of the project. The carvings add a lot of detail to the piece.

Well done.

Wow! I must say the upholstery is a bit over-the-top for my tastes, but the woodworking is superb!
