Nice work, love the railing!

 

thanks....its in a house in vail colorado...took six months to carve

 

6 months? That's as impressive as the piece itself. I was thinking multiple years.

 

I am afraid to ask so I guessing 20g

 

not even close....the mahogany cost almost that. then the whole thing had to be moved from eastern long island to colorado and installed. (which i did myself with an assistant) it was carved in 3 solid pieces....each glued up solid than carved. a side note...after it was installed i thought the center section was to frilly....so i pruned it quite a bit...gave the leaves and branches to carpenters working on the site. i did OK but the total job ran into six figures.

 

wow, well it beautiful thats for sure....

 

thanks....a lot of work.....the whole house is pretty special
