Turned boxes


Woodturning done while teaching in Rarotonga, Cook Islands. The boxes are inlaid in the rim - this gives the person opening them a surprise and preserves the colour of the inlays. Timbers and shells are local to Rarontonga and include Mango, Toa, Au, Nu, Tamanu etc. and clam shell, black pearl shell, coconut shell etc.
