      1. Thanks a lot, Gil, and Mikey. Good to hear from you, Gil. Hope that new shop is working out good.

  1. Hi, I like this..”…………a lot! Are the bottom of the legs burnt? Is this more for aesthetics, or something more symbolic? In any case, very interesting.

    1. I am glad you like the piece. The finish is built from layers of glazing starting with a black stain at the base of the legs, and a heavy gel stain on top of that, which does give it a dense burnt appearance. I had to expedite the finishing process to meet my deadline, but given the short time frame I am not disappointed in the results.
