This one took awhile.
Cut entirely from 1/4" solid Black Cherry, this is one of the few items I've managed to keep a copy of for myself. This one is now home to Susan's angel collection.
It Stands 20" high and 13.5" wide at the widest point.
A note here: you've probably noticed that I do quite a few things in Black Cherry - I consider it one of the most fascinating of all woods. When you first cut it, the wood is very light, almost a very faded pink. Over the years it ages and turns color naturally, until after about 10-15 years when it has turned it's classic dark red-brown "Black Cherry" color that everyone loves so much. Most people stain Cherry to get the color immediately - for my things, I think it's much more fun to watch the color change over time. Later on, you'll see an item that's going to do this very thing - it's almost 2 years old now and ... well, you'll see.
Keep Going! You're Getting Closer.
