This piano bench was built for a couple as a Christmas gift from the husband to his wife. It is in a clean sturdy craftsman style using quarter-sawn oak solids with olive ash burl veneers on the top and apron, as well as ebony veneers and solids for trim and wedges on the through tenons.

The lid opens for storage of sheet music. I enjoy using mortise and tenon joinery for both its strength and beauty.
