Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas 2018!

Hope everyone is set for a wonderful Christmas in a few days time

This is my last commission order for 2018, and as per usual I'm trying to combine wood with silver to make something a little bit unique.

Everything is made from scratch, and the silver Angel and star were cast, soldered and refined by filing and so on.

The smallest tree is set with 16 x Zirconia gems using the exact same technique as we would for stone setting in precious metals. Only difference is they are epoxyed in place.

Cheers,

Nick

Very special Nick. Have you made chess pieces? Dennis.

I've actually got a potential commission next year Dennis to make a full set of custom figures in bronze, on a wooden board and in a bespoke box.

Whole lot of work involved so haven't committed to do it yet!

I love these Nick. Is each tree turn as one or are they component parts and what kind of wood?

[Nick martin]

Wood is Iroko, Oak and Sapele.

I always have offcuts from other projects laid about and that's where these three came from.

All turned as single pieces on the lathe.

Many thanks and I'm pleased you like them.

Cheers,

Nick

They are lovely Nick. As is your photography
Would be amazing to see the chess set of you decide to accept the commission.
