Rocket Box?

Not sure what to call this, but it was fun and challenging to make. Inspired loosely by a piece posted by @pat miller

It’s 11″ tall and about 3″ diameter.

Box is Big Leaf Maple Burl, and the legs, rings, and finials are dyed maple.

Finish is lacquer.

Great design, and I love how you featured the wood grain.

I love this. It has a Ray Bradbury vibe to it,which makes me want to do something like it. I already have a flying saucer lidded box on my to do list

Whatever you decide to call it, it’s way beyond the bounds of craft and ventures squarely into serious art. Awesome!
