Hi Everyone
Here is a sneak peek of my newest Intarsia box that I'm working on.. My client is a civil war buff and wanted to incorporate the flags into the top of the lid. Still have a ways to go but should be very striking when complete.
The Box is made from Peruvian Walnut with a Holly accent and measures 13" x 9" x 5"
I drew the pattern for the intarsia using a couple of photos sent to me by the client.
So here is a little progress on the inlay work.
I used tiger maple for the background wood, bloodwood for the oval border, bluish walnut sap for the sword blades and mahogany and brownheart for the sword handles.
Making good progress.
Stay tuned- the fun has just begun
