I was inspired by a platter that was hanging on the wall at a restaurant. I went round-and-round trying to figure out what woods I wanted to use. Here's the list: Outside ring is redheart. Next is Maple burl, mildly curly hard rock Maple, and cocobolo. Next is Movingui. The center is Oregon Myrtle. I think the colors compliment each other well. 10 1/2" in diameter, 2 3/4" tall.
