This delightful piece finds heritage in the refined skills of Bohemian glass cutting and the long rooted tradition of forestry and woodwork in Karelia, Finland.

Sculpting

 

Sculpting

The surface of Poppy is cut on a diamond wheel.
Cut after cut the surface is shaped, hollowing out the pattern until the whole surface is covered.

finishing

Two types of diamond wheel are used to finish the surface- a rough one to remove material and a fine one to achieve a satin finish.
Finally a nano lacquer is applied to seal the piece.
