Jul | Rosewood Waves Shawl Pin

The Classic Rosewood Waves started with a theft.  Agus and I saw a wooden bracelet in an Ubud shop and thought "wow" that could be a shawl pin.  We bought the bracelet, took it to our wood producer and asked him to make something similar, on a smaller scale and lighter in weight so it would not pull on knitwear.  Our wood workers have simple tools set-up in lean-tos and they work mostly on the floor.  They have a lathe, cutting tools and a sander but I still don't know how they make the waves in this beautiful pin. 1.5 inches inside diameter 2 3/8 inches outside diameter
