That's very nice. I have a friend who's a French polisher and he does stuff like that.

The guy that made it and the stairs is proper old school and kept the price the same for any thing we want for on the last step, fair play, of course we picked the tricky option

I love craftsmanship & detail like that Thumbs Up

Your hallway looks amazing, I'd love a staircase and flooring like that. Is monkey tail the official name for it?
