I sure enjoyed seeing this. Lovely design, and the bench looks like something that I would treasure. Great work.
Thanks for showing it.

Wow! Really nicely done Juhani. We have an old painted bench from my daughters room that we'll be using, but this bench would look so much better in our entry when we complete our renovations. (Painting, new red oak flooring, refinishing the oak stair treads, and new wooden handrails. We happy!)

I have to echo Mark's comment about the design nicely fitting with the sweep of the curve for the backrest. Beautiful!! After we complete paying off all the work we're having done, I may have to look you up to commission one for us. That is - unless I can find the time to come up with a design and carve my own version. ;-)

Well done!

Thanks again for the kind replies. I do have it finished now but I haven't gotten any pictures of it yet. I will post them when I get them taken. The next one will be started soon.
