With this piece of driftwood, I felt it really needed more than just a simple bevel design. I found 4 similiar bevels and Joe, my partner and son in law, soldered the corners to each other and came up with this wonderful piece.

I sanded and cleaned and then lemon oiled the wood to bring out its grain and beauty! I used fire polished, glass, filigree, milifori, metal, and pearl beads. Along with copper, brass and gold and silver filled chains and brass and copper wire. On the top in the center are amethyst chips.It measures 14" tall (from the tip of the chain to the longest bead), 14 3/4" long (wood length) and the widest is measured past the width of the wood (3 1/2") to the bevels at 6".
