Knob Thorn ornamental box

This box is made from a new wood to me Knob Thorn, it is a very hard dense wood that was dusty to turn and had some interlocking grain which was a challenge to get smooth prior to enhancing on the Rose Engine. This box is 50mm tall and 60mm in diameter the box weave pattern on the outside was cut using an 18 bump rosette that was phased and was cut using a 3mm wide slotting cutter. The top of the lid was cut using a Tudor Rose rosette and the universal cutting frame and it is fitted with a Lilac coloured CZ stone in the centre. The underside of the lid was decorated using an Ice Flower rosette

The underside of the lid was decorated using an Ice Flower rosette cut using a 0.8mm end mill cutter in a drilling frame with a green CZ stone in the centre. The box was then finished with 3 coats of spray lacquer.
