Music bowl

This is a piece of Sycamore I tried an experiment with after watching Molly Winton. The lines of the musical staff are wire burned, and the notes are burned with a pen burner.

This is a birthday gift for a concert pianist and my best friend who played at my wedding. the tune is the melody to the original wedding march that he wrote for the occasion.
