Box with walnut grain sunburst pattern and abalone inlay
I made a box as a gift for a dear friend of mine in Germany. The lid has walnut which I for the first time attempted making a pattern from the woodgrain. Then used abalone shell and brass as inlay. Outer sides are made of warm red plum wood, and insides used light ash tree, which lifts the box and gives the interior a feeling of being more spacious than it is.
