I have many more on my web site(not boxes)

I hope to do more box's. I need the raw burl to have a fairly consistent hump on the narly side to get this form. Thanks for your praise.

>I am afraid this one has gone to the gallery. It is a fairly shallow bowl on the inside with a small shelf for the lid to rest on.

The ebony top took as much time as the burl.

Thanks for everyone's positive comments.
