Material: Ebony, Padauk
The Padauk core of this Ebony setting maul style gavel features ornamentally turned patterns of 24 flutes on the exposed faces. A Padauk handle and Ebony bead set off the instrument. The classical columnar shape of the body is echoed in the sounding block. The ornamental turning pattern was one I developed for a competition piece I made in December 2023 for Ornamental Turners International, and won the "novice" devision with.
