    Stunning examples of craftsmanship. I love the multiple woods and the glow of the finish. Do you flatten one side, or are they symmetrical?

    I keep the backs flattened. I try to avoid decorating them as much as possible to show the beauty of the timber. My preference is for the less common native aussie timbers rather than the exotics, as we have so much beautiful wood here, it deserves to be seen.
