BOX: the bottom wedge is mystery wood #145, the next two wedges are buginga, the next two are panga panga, and the top wedge is bloodwood

flaws/issues: The bloodwood wedge at the top of the box has a tiny chip-out right at the center of the bowl; you have to catch the light just right for it to be particularly noticeable.

The yellowheart in view 6 has some noticeable chip-out where it meets the wenge of view 5 (you can see this in the pic of view 1c at the bottom of the page)

comments: The chechem in view 4 has a marvelous grain, with lighter color running through it and the chechem in the base is also very nice. The mystery wood #145 in view 1 is spectacular.
