These are black walnut lathe turned, hand shaped legs. The many woods of the top inlaid designs are 1/4" thick. They depict my local Oregon Williamette valley - three views- the mountains, the city and the beach. I did this many years ago, but I'm showing it here because I had someone last week ask about it. I'm not sure I could still pull it all off today. I'm rusty on the lathe lately, and getting more lazy with such hand work, but I'd love to find an excuse to get back to it. This set was in a Renwick Gallery traveling USA show. My aunt Barb immediately snapped it up and now I think cousin Randy in New England has it.
