Flower Carving
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Mark Gordon
Gordon made the six-sided vase from a single white pine board, soaking the wood in warm water and clamping it to a real vase until dry; then he relief-carved each of the pieces before assembling them. Each petal of the 25 flowers was hand-cut, shaved, and then bent in warm water. The rims of the glasses were carved out of one solid piece of wood. The carving took about 400 hours to complete.
