A wooden hairbrush for missus. Kinda crappy but now I have an excuse to do a new and better one! Carved with knives and chisels. Stained with dark and light varnish and finished with clear acrylic cover.

Made from wood called 'terijoensalava' (salix euxina ’Bullata’) in Finnish - I dont know if there is an english translation for it. The wood was extremely soft, light and kinda powdery (?) inside - not much real grain on it. I bet you could carve a wooden knife from pine and carve this wood with the wooden knife.
