Canarywood Bowed Psaltery
July
7th
Eric
I’ve finally got the chance to use some incredibly figured Canarywood for a bowed psaltery. I had listed a couple of back/side sets in the Treasure Trove several months ago, and was surprised that no one had yet chosen to use them on a custom psaltery. (Though several people had expressed interest.)
In the above picture you can see this Canarywood, with a great example of bookmatching on the back. It almost resembles a flame, in both shape and color. There is still no binding yet, (which will be Snakewood), so the figure will look even more pronounced once it is framed and bordered with darker wood.
