Curly Cherry Tissue Box

[thetyreman]

I made this for mum last weekend for mothers day,

it was made with wood sent to me a while ago from custard, really nice figured cherry, I had to use my krenov 55 degree plane to get a perfect tear out free surface, really pleased with how its turned out,

I might make a few more of them out of figured woods.

Typically well executed Ben. Grain highlights the use. Nice.

Thanks. How does it get loaded with tissues?

Good to see those off-cuts being used to such good effect. Very nice job!

Incidentally, in another 12 or 18 months both the patination and the shimmering chatoyance will have moved up to another level. It's one of the joys of using highly figured Cherry, no other timber ripens so quickly and spectacularly.

aha the bottom is open so it just slides over the tissue box, there is no base.

Thanks. I wondered if that was it. It really does look great.
