This piece is a Memorial Wall Hanging.
I was commissioned to build this for a friend from college days. She in turn had a friend who's teenage son died quite unexpectedly. The young man loved the saxaphone.
This is a three generation piece. My dad made the walnut footstool. His dad-Herbert Young (my Grampa Young) made the walnut and maple chess board, and I turned the chess pieces from broom poles when I was about 20.
