    Default Maloof low back chair

    Hello

    I made this to go with the pedestal table I made a while back.
    It's made from Black walnut
    I went about this the long way, I put a rough shape of the chair together, then set about shaping it with rasps.
    It's hand sanded to #600 and 4 coats of Osmo PolyX
    Cheers!

    That is one beautiful chair! That would have been a fun way to get the curves.

    Very well done! The walnut is beautiful.

    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Regards, Woodwould.

    Beautiful chair. Well done!

    Great job.

    I like the look of this chair. I think SM said it was his favourite chair.

    The chairs a work of art, and it goes well with the table.
