This design begins as a solid block of walnut that I consecutively cut apart and inlay bent plys of dyed birch. Then I laminate the design to a solid maple backing. After assembly and sanding, these earrings are given several coats of finish to waterproof the wood. I personally do every step of the process by hand.
