Very nice. What is the wood used on the legs and trim? It's hard to tell on the lower res pics. I'd guess curley birch, but I'd probably be wrong.

The legs are turned from the posts as one piece. It's curly maple.

Beautiful work! How many years have you done this work? Most people my age (40) only look at mass production, i.e. quantity not quality. Your is work is very nice and thanks for posting your pics I enjoyed them... Bret

Thanks Bret,
I appreciate the compliment. I've been woodworking for 20 some odd years as a hobby.

Thanks Ron. I'm looking forward to seeing you post some pictures of your efforts. I haven't gotten into carving. The craft part I'm OK at, but I'm not so good at the art part.
