Tea caddy in American black walnut

The measurements are 250mm wide, 180mm deep, 120mm high. This was a 25th wedding aniversary gift. The client provided the lettering design and celtic knot designs. I used sand shading to scorch the edges of the sycamore veneer to give the impression of shade where the letters flow under each other.
