"Diamond Box - Spalted Sugar Maple"

SPALTED SUGAR MAPLE DIAMOND BOX W/ HIDDEN CAPTURED MARBLE 23" Length x 13.25 Width x 5.5" High (Item B1684) Having rescued this beautiful Spalted Sugar Maple timber, I band-sawed the large diamond shape for drying. After drying over two years, I "trued" the diamond shape and sculpted the elegant wings at 2000 rpm. Then shaped the raised center dome and hollowed out the interior box with an undercut rim, all sanded to a very smooth surface. Hidden under the Pagoda style lid I carefully captured a large marble with tolerances that allow the marble to rotate and spin. The beautiful marble was made by Phillip Nolley. Finished with 100% Organic TY Oil and Wax Buffed.
