Do you see how the thumbnail brings out the lines because the curve of the edge is out of the picture frame? That's what I was thinking, but again, that's how I see it- maybe not how you do. This is nice though- the woodworking is beautiful and the craftsmanship exceptional. I am particularly drawn to the lines created by the alternating colors.
The light lines bring your eye to the end which has a slightly sharper focus than the previous one. They almost come to a point. The curve makes it more appealing too.
