I’ve always been a big fan of the Basketweave pattern in Segmenting; I think Tom Lohman’s Tubular pattern inspired this piece!! 21k plus pieces of Pernambuco, Bloodwood, Yellowheart, Wenge, Holly and Maple; all individually glued into a vase 18.5” tall, 14.5” at it’s widest point. This was built in three pieces, dry fit together to create the exterior form, then separated and turned to .20 thickness, finished the interior and the glued the three sections together using Malcolm Tibbetts’ techniques. Finish is Sam Malouf finish; I might do more but like the natural wood look it yields. C&C plz!
