One has then been sanded smooth and burnished with leather to develop a soft ceramic-like surface patina. Its partner has been ebonised with an iron solution, reacting with the tannins in the wood, turning the surface a deep blue/grey, it has then been treated in beeswax to intensify the surface finish.1of 2
