Kamagong Ebony Beaded Cylinder Box

Time for a new style! Turned from Kamagong Ebony (Diospyros blancoi), this box is very different then my other ones, it is a straight cylinder but I have added raised bead at the joint. Also there is a rounded over corner on both top and bottom, as well as a very subtle dome at the top of the lid. Turned, hollowed and finished with gloss lacquer. Size is 1 3/4" tall x 1 5/8" diameter. I will continue to try this style in different woods, although it takes a lot more time and skill than the other boxes!

This works nicely Gabriel! That shadow line at the base with the dark wood and the white background looks great! Lovely piece of wood!
