Hi Dave
I loved the "bespoke" cribbage board. The rosewood was very elegant and rich wood and did not disappoint in any way.
Many thanks for your efforts and most importantly your advice along the way.
I am very pleased and wouldn't hesitate to recommend you.
Many thanks
(Note) Bespoke is a British term employed in a variety of applications to mean an item custom-made to the buyer's specification.
Finished cribbage board |
It is a custom piece created to display elegance and beauty. I think the Bloodwood inlay into the Bolivian Rosewood creates the exact image we were trying for.
Beautiful end grain and Custom pegs |
This is an end view showing the custom metal pegs and the grain pattern of the board. Also the dovetail slot on bottom to store the pegs. As you can see it looks awesome.
The beginning piece of wood. |
After much looking this is the beautiful piece of Bolivian Rosewood that I found and started with.
Nice grain pattern, lots of potential. As always you never really know what will show. I was excited to see what it would look like once I got the board created and applied the finish.
Stay tuned for more updates soon......:-) ****************************************************************
