I made this for my Daughter Justine, for her children for Christmas. This is a good way for Santa Claus to get his cookies and milk safely so that the dog and cat won't get to them first.
 
The over all size is 35" Tall x 15" deep x 16" wide. The spindles and Santa's frame are out of Bloodwood and Hard Maple. The box is out of Maple. The Marquetry of Santa Claus woods are, Holly, Maple, Black Ebony, Bloodwood, American Black Walnut, Ash, Quilted Maple.
 
Thanks for looking, And Have a Very Merry Christmas!!!

Dennis, our FUTURE Grandchildren will create lots of fond Christmas memories from this Cabinet that their Grandfather made for them. They are all very proud of the work that you do.

As usual, your work is fantastic. I love the carefully mixed woods and your designs are artful and perfectly executed. Every time I see one of works of art it gives me a flurry of new ideas. Keep pumping them out, it's good for us all! Max
