This is a hand carved residential sign I made for a client in Tokyo. It is carved from katsura (桂), Japanese Judas tree wood, a popular wood used for relief carving in Japan.
Below is the completed sign after painting the letters (enamel), and several coats of external varnish. The outside border was edged with a router.
