Eclosion - Tournage sur bois

🌿 Turning a Chestnut and Sapelli Box In this video, I'm making "Eclosion" (Blooming), a turned wooden box inspired by the shape of a calla lily flower as it delicately opens. The box is made of chestnut for the body, with a contrasting sapele wood for the flower at the top. It measures 170-180 mm in height and 100 mm in diameter, with an integrated lid that follows the natural curve of the piece. This video covers: preparing and shaping the wood into a round turning the overall form making the lid and opening creating the calla lily flower from sapele wood finishing to reveal the wood grain This piece plays on soft curves, contrasting woods, and the idea of ​​a flower blooming, hence its name: Eclosion (Blooming). If you enjoy woodturning, turned boxes, and nature-inspired pieces, you'll love this video.
