I wire-brushed the cabinet sides to burnish the oak and enhance the grain. The through tenons of the shelves were left proud and rounded slightly.
The dovetails were also left proud and rounded slightly.

White oak cabinet with spalted tanoak drawer fronts.

Sorry for the delayed response. I just measured the piece this morning and it is 11.5 inches wide by 23 inches high by 4.5 inches deep.

Good luck, Mike

Great cabinet, the dimensions and proportions are just right. Can you share a plan or provide dimensions so that I can build one?

Thanks,

Mark
