Catch the Brass Ring!



We once took a ride on an original style carrousel at Martha's vineyard which still had Brass Ring holders. Back in the day a child would ride around the carrousel on the beautifully carved and painted Horses,and attempt to "catch the Brass Ring" from its holder. Believe me, its not as easy as it sounds. Those who caught the Brass Ring won a carvival prize and bragging rights as a memento for their skill and accomplishment.
This routed relief can be seen in earlier posts before finishing. Here it has been finished with a metalic Brass finish and a patina to truly age the piece. This design was created for a mirror frame but it could easily be for a ceiling medalion, picture frame, or any type of architectural embellishment. You too can "Catch the Brass Ring" when you put Wellhouse Woodworks to work on your next custom project.
