Yes it is. I like to carve and use domestics almost exclusively, but it looks like I gotta try mahogany.

Beautiful box.

This mahogany was a dream to work with. 


The carving did not turn out perfect, but it did turn out perfectly fine and I am happy with it. 


Finish is simply Minwax Antique Oil. I have 3 coats on right now and plan for a few more. I would love to get several hundred board feet of this wood if I could.

Wow Scoony! You really do some beautiful work!
See ya around,
Dominic
