Chet Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 Thats a real nice and simple design, I really like it. The recessed drawers was a nice addition to the design. I think the knobs were a good choice, nice size, to big and it becomes a distraction. A person can build a beautiful piece and then muck it up with a bad hardware choices, but I think you nailed it. Are the doors push to open? No knobs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 That looks great, Drew! The recessed drawer fronts are a really nice touch. Nutmeg will be handing that that down to the next generation, for sure! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the hardware on order and it's not installed yet. The top still isn't secured either, I'm waiting on the door hardware. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you were right-on there. The doors really make the look on this piece for me. Form follows function is all fine but I don't have many items outside of shop fixtures that don't have some portion of scale, feature, or element that is there because it 'looks better' that way to me. Your dresser is a winner. The design, proportions, and the drawer-to-door layout all balance just great. Add your craftsmanship and that wonderful material and you end up with a beautiful, timeless piece. I can see the future . . . someone is saying . . . "your great grandpa made that with his own hands". 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
