African Blackwood box

This small African Blackwood box is 5.5cm tall and 5.5cm in diameter. It was turned on my normal lathe and then enhanced on my Rose Engine lathe. To enhance it a bit more I added a red paste stone to the centre of the lid and a smaller one to the inside of the lid. To turn the basket wave on the outside I had to modify my usual cutter as it would have hit the chuck before it completed the pattern on the side of the lid so that cutter was modified on my metal lathe.
