Just finished this pair a week or so ago...

The drawer fronts and door panels have a large field applied, and have Rosewood knobs fitted. All finished in hard wax oil, hopefully to stop it yellowing to much. Thanks for looking.

Nice looking cabinets Sir. Nice detail with the knobs and the drawers.

Thank you, the panels were the most challenging, I had to make a poor man's cnc to get the field applied, messed one of them up too, and had to remake. The clients really liked the handles, and said they were a nice contrast to the ash.

Mark,

Beautiful job. Question: Is the one drawer with the step out designed to cover a hidden compartment?

Thank you, in answer to your question no, the alcove was smaller on the left-hand side, so I made the drawer to fit around the wall. Both wardrobes still appear the same size, but with no wasted space.

Very nice Mark.
What type of hinge do you use in that application?

I am pretty set on using blum euro hinges whenever I can. Mostly because they are easy and quick.... :shock:

Thanks Nick, I'm using Euro cup hinges for an inset door.
