Cocobolo

Project by Ryan Sparreboom posted 142 days ago 340 views 2 times favorited 7 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Here was another fun simple project. First time working with cocobolo. I had no problems with it and it was easy to work.
The legs are paduak.
The finish is shellac.

This is a really nice looking center piece. I have never had the opportunity to work with cocobolo but it is a gorgeous wood and works well with the paduak. You did a good job on your interpretation of this piece.

Thanks for the post.

Nice candle holder. Love both the wood but I would have used a contrasting wood for the legs. Just my Opinion.

Keep it up.
