This incredible chisel box was made by Harry and I had the very great pleasure of decorating it with Japanese inspired imagery.
The chisels are marvellous Kirshcen brand chisels. Kirschen means “cherries” in German, so I decided to do a cherry blossom themed box to match. The cherry blossom designs are inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints.
I continued the Japanese theme on the underside with a Japanese dragon.
