Rain Tree 3

This beautiful and complex box with its graceful sweeping lines brings to mind a beautiful tree whose water laden leaves are about to shed water so they can spring back upright. It measures 8 inches across at the base, is 7.5" high and 5 inches deep at the base. It is made from beautifully figured dark brown Chechen wood, with a Walnut center stripe surrounded by Baltic Birch plys, has handles of Primavera wood and sits on a base of Primavera wood.
