This Corner Curio is made from Honduras Mahogany.When completed it will have 5 glass shelves, two mirrored backs and glass Gables.
In order to put this Curio together i had to build a form to hold it while i fastened the bottom and top and base, and also the back Stile. There is really more glass, then wood, but it still took some time shaping the parts.
The picture shows the form, in the form i have the right and left gable and the back stile is laying there. The next picture, shows the bottom in place and back stile, and top. The last picture show the curio together, ready to be finished.
I am sending this out to a professional finisher i know and from there it will come back and i will put all the glass in and mirrored backs and over lay backs and it will be completed.
I can;t get the case in for finishing for a week, so maybe a couple weeks i can post a final picture.

One can almost ``smell and feel`` your shop and that piece of Art..  Love the pictures and hope to let us know the steps you take in applying the finish on that one ! Is it me or do others feel ? ``` like they want to touch it``

Another nice piece in progress. But I doubt it beats the Deacons Bench.
