I'd have guessed that the timber was Cherry going by the colour, but you've made a smashing job of making that form. It really sits well.

And I'll be you had fun with that finial, very nicely done.

Rod, get to say, that is one stunning form, classic in detail and well finished.

Now if the past 90 readers would comment (27 picture views alone) .. you've have one Heck of a reply.
