An Original Collaboration by Glass Artist Mike Smarr and Wood Artist Robert Gaunt.

This is our first collaboration together and I couldn’t be more  pleased with the results. Robert (Click Here) is truly an outstanding wood artist and I hope that we will find the time to do more pieces together in the near future. I wanted to do a post on this Keepsake Chest to see what others think about the woods that we used, as well as the glass design that we chose.
