That is one of the most beautiful highboys I've ever seen!
Your execution looks flawless! Can you give us an idea (rough) of how many hours you have in it?

It seems like so much attention was paid to the carving that they forgot about the drawer faces. It looks like a random choice of mediocre wood. I'd like to see it in person.

I see. Normally, unless attributed otherwise, pictures posted are assumed to be from the original poster. Well, my comments still stand. Whoever made that piece did an astounding job!

Sorry. I don't intend to deceive.
Richard D's point is well taken. I don't think I'd use the word mediocre, but there are better examples of wood choice for drawer fronts.
Still, in my view it's a spectacular piece.
