Aside from great wood, these have really nice, tight construction.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... What I love about your URNS, is the fact that the grain runs around the 4 sides. I’m interested in, is the construction of the bottom, i.e. “the 4 dots” shown. Could you do some futher explaination there. What delicate looking Urns. FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks guys. I just dadoed the bottoms in which are a 1/2” thick. The dadoes are 1/2” deep and 1/2” wide. The dots are actually just antique brass colored screws so that you can take the bottom off to put the ashes in because the top is glued on.

Great job. Beautifull wood and fantastic construction.

The extra strip of color on the bottom balances the top along with the keys.

Keep it up.
