Build Your Own Prestige - Block 054

The block arrived with a really tight grain and mine came out looking like the photo, which was a nice surprise. I hit it with a coat of lacquer and the color popped way more than I expected. Wound up ordering a second one since some blocks fail during the build.

Wasn't sure what to expect ordering something built from a pictured block, but the piece that arrived matched the photo closely. Took a coat of lacquer and the colors really popped, way more than they did straight out of the box. Solid little block, held up fine on my shelf.

The grain on this block is way nicer than the photo showed, and it took a coat of lacquer beautifully — the color really popped after. Only thing is mine had a small chip on one corner, but for a handmade piece I get it, still thrilled with how it looks on my shelf.
