The wood is curly maple. The polyester squares are custom casted with blue tint and are then cut to shape using the same techniques as with wood. The maple/polyester segments are 2/3/-1/3 ratio and change in size dependent on the diameter of that ring. Thus, both polyester and maple lengths vary throughout. The pedestal, in the shape of a book was made to house a light. The vase has a “window” in its base allowing the light to shine form underneath.
