Elm Credenza with bookmatched Burr Elm Panels in both sides of the doors. The top is hand cut dovetailed to the sides, the bottom shelf through tenoned with Rosewood wedges. The drawer fronts, made from one plank, are all hand cut though dovetailed. The drawers and doors are push to open so no handles. The top, sides and bottom shelf were made from bookmatched planks. The finish is an oil wax commercial mix. This was the first major item of furniture I designed and made myself and hope it is appropriate to show here with so many other fine pieces. I am no photographer so please excuse the quality of the pictures.


Design or Plan used: My own design
