Flames of Sovereignty is a large, heirloom quality piece crafted with the highest quality materials in tribute to hope and freedom. While I am tempted to HODL the piece as tightly as Bitcoin, I have decided to offer it for sale as my contribution to the ascendance of Bitcoin.

It is an exceptional piece.

Materials used include premium solid kiln-dried Cherry, 99.9% pure 24 carat triple gold leaf, semi-precious stones and minerals, casting resin, finishing oil and wax.

The Coin and the Flames are each carved out of a single 1.5" (3.8 cm) thick premium solid Cherry panel (finished thickness is 1.4"). Absolutely no plywood or fiber board was used, and all of the individual letters, shapes and pockets are carved directly into the solid Cherry panel.

All letters and the Bitcoin outline are gilded with 99.9% pure, 24 carat triple gold leaf.

The black stone inlay in the Bitcoin and surrounding letters is Black Schorl Tourmaline from Brazil. The flames are inlaid using fine, semi-precious tumbled stone including Chalcedony, Garnet and Carnelian. All stone is inlaid using UV inhibit casting resin.

The piece is finished with high quality, hand-rubbed oil and wax. I applied 3 coats of oil on all edge grain and countless coats of oil on the end grain. I then hand-rubbed two applications of high quality wax to all wood surfaces.

Hanging hardware is included and is pre-installed on the back of the pieces. Patience and care will be needed to hang the Coin and the Flames with the appropriate spacing between the pieces. Detailed hanging instructions will be included.

Cherry wood will darken substantially as the wood ages. You can expect the wood surfaces to become a deeper, darker color as the piece ages.
