Geraldina writes: This is a beautiful piece, as are all of your pieces. have you ever considered a collaboration with a woman who does bronze work? Could be an interesting addition. The piece is so fluid and bronze could certainly continue to achieve that. Wow, you must spend a lot of time working on your pieces! Good for you. Lucky Man Posted: 2:51 pm on October 31st

Blackwill writes: Truly inspired work. Beautiful inlay and marquetry. I'm particularly impressed by the calla lily carving on the leg posts. After seeing this piece, I'm inspired to do a similar treatment on the upper posts of a potting bench I'm designing. Assuming, of course, I can carve...haven't tried it yet :) Posted: 12:57 pm on October 27th
