This is a multi purpose cabinet. It'll display some fine crystals, hold fine silver cutlery, wine and liquor bottles.

Frame is bubinga from a single piece of 8/4 stock sized 1-1/2'x17'. (Only some of it is used!) Inside the upper display case is veneered with waterfall bubinga veneer. The lighter curly wood is locally cut, absolutely gorgeous curly madrone. All drawer sides are also madrone. Panels are all from the same flitch of madrone burl. All the black hardware is ebony.

Style is predominantly A&C with my blend of some G&G touches, as well as some Japanese flair.

Everything is sanded to 600G with many hand rubbed coats of my mixture of oil varnish.
