And a carved bed that I built after early 17th century art styles. It took me almost 7 months to do this. The head posts and some other minor details take influence from the 17th century Swedish warship Vasa. It is in basswood mostly, with smaller amounts of walnut and bloodwood.

Thank you!
I haven't thought about a selling price much since I don't intend on selling it. The materials to build it cost around $1,500. And there was a whole ton of labor. I would think it would be pretty high.
