James,

That is really very nice! I really like the Greene and Greene influence. The inlay is stunning. Great Piece!

Great looking piece, all the attention to the details really paid off and makes the piece all come together.

Great craftmanship.

What an impressive and inspirational piece of work!!

The bookmatched doors seem to be a different species then the rest? So what type of wood are they?

I'm also curious on how you did the inlays. They look great!

You got my vote for "Best in Show"!
