You can get decorative with brass. You could use all thread and polish the ends. You could put a butterfly in the face.

Otherwise there will be band saw marks on the interior surfaces and awful to clean. They could be sanded but the gulley of each would tell how it was done.

Not cut with a saw and spread, IMO.

Examining that while typing I think the pieces were completely sawn free, milled, bent with steam and glued up having no pressure or tendency to split.
Cool thanks. That makes sense. I've noticed several more pieces of furniture posted on FB by the same profile, and in everyone, the background/shop is different. I think all of the stuff posted is AI based, so it's BS (although some are kind of neat like the one I posted above). I'll probably block this profile so I don't have to see any of the AI generated stuff.
