Nicely done.
Either that, or flat out give up...
Mind numbingly well crafted...

and it took me a bit to figure out how/where to place them on each drawer front, which was not initially that obvious - but I came up with a strategy that finally made sense. Not to mention that the pulls had to be manipulated to fit the curvature of the drawer fronts.

Thanks John.
I did chicken out a little on this project not going with the classic "ball and claw" feet and opting for the cabriole feet instead (Hey - I'm no carver!)
Next project - maybe something a little less challenging (OK - probably not!). Actually I may try another Krenov style cabinet-on-stand similar to the one on my website.
