Whittling
I finally took time to find these photos on the computer.
My deceased Brother In Law whittled/carved these items for my Sister many years ago. He had many talents and building things from wood was one of them. I hope you enjoy the pictures, she still has these items.
Have a blessed day,
Leon

Quite an artist. Wonderful work.
Re: Whittling
Those are magnificient Leon. Are the chairs carved from a block or assembled using miniature joinery? Is that last photo a tool your brother-in-law made? Looks sort of like a small gouge.

Re: Whittling
The chairs are one piece, and the last item is a black powder "horn".

Re: Whittling
I had the same question about the chairs. With nothing to scale their size they look like real chairs! One piece? That’s amazing.
The last one had me curious too. I recognized the powder horn shape and thought it might be a perfume dropper
He had some serious skill. They are flawless.
