Pendant of olive wood in the shape of a heart, with honeycomb hole pattern; the holes go into a common central chamber that was hollowed out through the holes. About 1-1/2 inches wide. Cord tunnel through top section, not visible from front. Hand-rubbed beeswax finish.

I like these and will be doing some more. They are all a bit different from each other.

Thank you. :)

Olive wood often has nice patterns of light and dark in the grain. One reason I like it (also it takes detail well and is non-toxic).

Well, I get small pieces when I run across them (I can ofter get small objects made from olive or teak or ebony relatively cheaply, particularly at garage sales or if they are broken). I've never seen a place that sells olive wood in quantity, and it tends to be pricey. Some cities have specialty lumber stores that carry exotic woods (in the Berkeley, California area, there's McBeath Hardwood). You should find a lot of on-line dealers if you do a Google Shopping search for:
