Purpleheart with gold epoxy inlay

This Purpleheart box is 80mm tall and 70mm in diameter ornamented on my Rose Engine lathe. It has a staggered basket weave pattern created using a 24 bump rosette and a 3mm wide slotting cutter. The lid has a flower pattern cut with a 1.2mm endmill and the pattern is then filed with gold epoxy and it has a 5mm CZ stone in the centre. The underside of the lid has an Arch 7 pattern on it cut with a 0.8mm endmill. The box is finished with 3 coats of gloss lacquer. It was made as a birthday present for a friend.
