Sakura View

Description

Sakura View is a marquetry art piece and part of Natasha's Geishas series.

Framed in solid wenge, Sakura View has a figured sycamore background.  The woman's kimono is made of individual pieces of lacewood, selected and cut to emulate the natural fall of fabric.  Dyed maple is used for her hair and obi, while her skin is bleached maple with pyrographic accents.  The cherry tree branch and leaves are walnut with cherrywood blossoms that are detailed with pyrography.

Mounting hardware is pre-installed on the back of the piece to enable it to be hung on a wall.
