Here’s another custom psaltery I’m working on. The top is sitka spruce, with an inlaid chechen ring (the back/sides are also chechen) and a dragonfly rose inside the outer wood ring.

I tried to capture one of the ammonite shells that was inlaid in the side of the psaltery, but alas, the picture came out too dark!

Hopefully I’ll get another picture in of this one: next time of the back, and I should be able to illuminate the sides a little better too! My shop certainly wasn’t made with photography opportunities in mind.
