Tapered Hexagons: Bold, Stylish... absolutely Unique!
Although these take the longest to build, they're also my favorites. I design and build each
one myself. In addition to their extraordinary beauty, I'm especially proud of the symmetry
I'm able to achieve with all. Balanced like a top! Excluding hardware, all are comprised of over 250 pieces -- each precisely cut, fitted, and handled -- multiple times, during assembly. I regard each as a unique work of art. Commissioned work aside, I never build the same box twice. You'd best hurry, the holidays are just around the corner!

"Azul Flores" tapered hexagonal planter box
The shadows cast by this are more than I could have hoped for! Building the semi-staggered panel texture made it easily the most labor-intensive of the group.
That being said, you'll see the 3-D, "staggered blade" style again.

"Hawkeye" tapered hexagonal planter box
Like it's bright red cousin, "Big in Japan", I wanted to build something worthy of this vibrant, eye-popping gold/yellow. I'm constantly experimenting, so this model marked the first time I'd reversed the posts wide-end-down, creating this decidedly "silo" appearance. 'Corn Kernel' texture, bright yellow AND silo-shaped? What else could I call it but the (Iowa) "Hawkeye"?!
