Small custom desk for client. She let me be creative and wanted to be suprised when the project was finished. Top is quad matched mahogany veneer with solid maple and walnut edgebanding. Lower elements are solid 1" thick maple frame with maple veneered ply panels. Frame joinery is double biscuit, something new for me and I'd use this joint again. I built a jig that secures rails and stiles for making double biscuit mortises. End grain mortises in rails can be tricky but the jig made it easy and safe. Gold accents are 23k Mission gold leaf layered between coats of General Finishes Arm-R-Seal. Upon my recommendation client obtained beveled glass top for protection.
