Dolphin Family Intarsia Pattern
Dolphin Family Intarsia Pattern
Couldn't load pickup availability
Dolphins are perennial favourites and this Dolphin Family leaping through the waves is always very popular.
The stream-lined dolphin shape makes for very easy intarsia construction. And with this design you can start off with just making the top dolphin. And add the other three at a later stage.
Using different timbers for the water and the animals, helps the dolphins stand out.
But don't take our word, check out some of the extra images I took here and our Customer's Finished Dolphin Projects here.
