80 years old but worth the wait !

Postby JB » 03 Jun 2010, 15:25

Hi everyone, just thought I'd give some links to something a bit special we've just finished :)

This is the L800CB, a bevel model made from 80 year old Brazilian Rosewood that had some natural, beautiful colouration.

The rosette is mother of pearl, handcut celtic design and the bindings and bevels are solid ebony.

L800CB

Wood like this certainly doesn't appear too often so you imagine how much we enjoyed working with it !

An expensive custom model that commands £6000 even after 25% discount has been applied .... they say the best things in life are free, but some of them cost a bit too :lol:
