Pretty cool SkyJ, I like the egg shape and the fingers that cradle it. Yet another cool design in this challenge! Taking a guess, I'm going to say Cherry and spalted Myrtle?

Thanks guys!!.
Junior's piece is made from the same log of spalted pecan!! We didnt plan it either. Juniors piece was in a package I sent him quite awhile ago with an assortment of wood. I just happen to pull out a box of scrap wood and saw the small piece of pecan and said " That will make a nice box"!!

Reminds me of Marley's goblet from the last challenge. Does the box lift out of the base?
