Anigre Bottle Stopper Collection

These are all of the other Aniegre bottle toppers we have made so far. This wood is a very light clean fine grained wood that looks very nice and sleek

Grandma's Apple Tree Wood Stopper

Our latest addition to our Grandma's Apple Tree wine bottle stopper collection is this one. This once has the bowl on top which adds class too this wood. The design is sleek and sophisticated.

One More Brown Ebony

This design is based off of a vase. We curve it up and "put a hat on it." Once again, the grain color is beautiful.

GrandMa's Apple Tree wood

GrandMa's Apple Tree

Species Latin: The big old apple tree at grandma's house I had to prune last summer.

Species Description: This is a very dark heart wood with a very light sap wood color. The wood is prone to cracking and splitting. The branchs I got to work with were very dry and cracked, so the pieces I was able to use I had to

spend some extra time and effort of the smaller cracks with CA glue.

Playing With the Brown Ebony

This design comes from an egg shape then a cut through the middle. I love the colors that pop out in this wood. It ranges from pink to purple to gold to brown.

Argentine Brown Ebony Our second wood of the week.

Argentine Brown Ebony

Species: Caesalpina paraguariensis
Additional Comments: A very dense, dark-brown wood with an incredible 3-D figure in edge-grained portions. This piece of Brown Ebony wood is very hard yet very nice to work with. It shines very well and shows the deep rich grain.

Brown ebony is an exotic wood with very similar properties to Gaboon Ebony. The wood is a stable, intriguing wood with golden browns and dark streaks.

I have a piece of this wood that I found in one of my shop boxes. It was from a visit to the wood store where I thought this would be a nice looking piece to make a few toppers out of.

Aneigre - Wine Glass For A Wine Topper

We thought this design was so funny we made two. This design is meant to be a wine glass on top of a wine bottle. These are made of Aneigre wood. Nice, light, clean, simple shape, with the elegance of the bowl on the top.

More With Aniegre

It seems we like the curves lately. This one has a similar design, but is original all in its own.

A New Bottle Topper Made of Aniegre

This is a new bottle topper I just turned made out of Aniegre. It has a simple subtle shape which is perfect for a topper. This wood is very interesting. It is super soft and it tears easily. You need to make your cuts clean and your tool must be sharp. Never the less, it is a fun wood to experiment with.
