Sliding dovetail joints for shelves. Also, lots of bookmatching! Profling and curves were cut by hand using a coping saw, planes, a spokeshave, and a rasp and file. Shiplapped back boards are held in place with tenons/grooves at top and bottom, with square cut brads on the middle shelves. Finish is BLO and blonde shellac.

This is my first piece that is for someone else- it will be sad to see it go!
