This hutch is made from wormy chestnut and ebonized oak.  The chestnut was reclaimed after the client tore a wall out in their home and discovered the hidden treasure.  I then was hired to design, and handcraft this beautiful hutch.  The bottom has to sliding doors, followed by wine bottle holders, a middle cubby, and the three drawers.  The bottom shelf has hangers for wine glasses, and the shelves have dados in the back so decreative plates can be displayed.    www.hayesfurnituredesign.com
