This Credenza, called "The Conversion" was my final project in my Joinery / furniture building and design aprenticeship program last year.

It's made from African Mahogany, Quilted Hemlock, Black Walnut (carcass), with accent pieces of Ebony, Tulipwood, Wendge, Eastern Maple and Spanish Cedar.

The inlays on the side and inside of the draws and on top of the credenza is something that I have never seen before, however, I thoroughly enjoyed those visual touches. Great job!!!!

The feet, as if taken from some old animal seem not quite a match to what they are holding up. Than said, I am in awe of skill in making it and the courage to put it together all the elements in one piece.
