We made a trip to Okawa to see the progress on the shelf project. Tetsushi and Suetsugu examined the wood and determined which pieces to use on what parts. We also visited the marquetry artist, Kanegae-san, to see how he interpreted the flower motifs. I was so impressed to see his fine craftsmanship and to see how true he followed my designs. At this point the pieces have been cut out and next he will start carving them. I am really excited to see the finished piece!
