This little fellow is my first attempt at a rocking chair. It's made entirely out of wild cherry, also a first for me. Cherry is both a joy and a frustration to use: a joy because it's a pleasure to work with and smells nice, and looks gorgeous after a coat or two of oil, when that lovely mellow colour leaps out at you; a frustration because it can also be a nightmare to work with, often growing with a twist and with a grain that's liable to tear out. Maybe it was just this tree!
Still, the overall effects are really pleasing, I think, and it works well with the grey hemp seat.
If anyone's interested in the exhibition, I'll be demo-ing there on Saturday 9 June. Hope to see you there...
