This started out as a whole burl, approx. 9" x 8" across the top, with a max height of 4". Here is the finished product. Sanded to 3000 grit. This stuff is very hard! On the inside, I had to stop to sharpen the chisel about every third pass. Lots of nibble, nibble, nibble. Bottom left photo: the image is a little distorted, as it shows a reflection. It is the same color as the inside walls (tough to get a non-reflection photo).

Very nice piece and presentation. The 3 photos combined with the black background make the piece stand out. Hard to be critical of anything here.

Sure is some pretty wood and your finish really brought the piece to life! Nice work!

Thanks for posting this! It was surely hard to produce a piece like that but your craftsmanship and talent did it flawlessly! Fantastic work!
