I turned another box from yew and pink ivory.
I did an odd shape, the proportions require adjustment and I don’t know that it is anything but a contrivance.
The pink ivory inlay is very nice. It would appear that pink ivory keeps It’s vibrant pink colour over time.
I have two more blanks prepared, I am once again reminded that I like simple, basic forms. I am drawn to simple shapes, the primitive, the every day.
I will be very happy to make two simple, standard boxes which allow the wood to shine.

Beautiful.
The Yew looks spectacular. Photos likely don’t do the Pink Ivory justice?
Stunning.
